Chadwick Boseman just earned a posthumous nomination at the 2021 Golden Globe Awards for the "best actor in a motion picture" for his final movie role on Netflix's Ma Rainey's Black Bottom.
Ma Rainey's Black Bottom is based on August Wilson's 1982 play about the "Mother of Blues" Ma Rainey, who is played by Viola Davis and her experience with white management at the time. The movie takes place in 1927 Chicago and explores the racial tension in the music world as white record executives profited off of Black artists.
