It's a history-making kinda day at the 93rd annual Academy Awards...

From **Chloé Zhao** becoming the first woman of colour and the second woman ever to win the Best Director award for her work on *Nomadland* to actress **Yuh-Jung Youn** becoming the first Korean woman to win Best Supporting Actress, women are smashing those glass ceilings left, right and centre!

The latest history-making moment goes to **Mia Neal** and **Jamika Wilson** who, alongside Sergio Lopez-Rivera, just won the Oscar for Best Makeup and Hairstyling after transporting audiences back to the 1920s in *Ma Rainey's Black Bottom.*

They are the first Black women to win the award.... *ever.* 

"I can picture Black trans women standing up here, and Asian sisters, and our Latina sisters, and Indigenous women. And I know that one day it won't be unusual or groundbreaking, it will just be normal," Mia said in her acceptance speech.

Meanwhile, the film's costume designer **Ann Roth** won the Best Costume Design award, making a little history of her own in the process.
