“Those fittings in your home, where you welcomed us in, you took care of us, you empowered us, you protected us,’ Union said, per Daily Mail . “Ruth is in very high demand, so she set the look on Mary Jane , and she went to go to do Selma, she empowered the next black woman. Every year on our show, we have made sure to empower and protect black creatives, and it started with Ruth E. Carter.”
