Cynthia Erivo, Janelle Monáe and Laura Harrier strike a pose on the carpet while attending Alfre Woodard’s 2020 Sistahs’ Soirée held at the private residence of Jonas Tahlin, CEO of Absolut Elyx on Wednesday (February 5) in Los Angeles.
The Oscar-nominated actress and two ladies were joined at the event by Tiffany Haddish, Tracee Ellis Ross, Danielle Brooks, Kiki Layne, Aisha Tyler, Edwina Findley, Amandla Stenberg, Taylor Russell, Lashana Lynch, Lynn Whitfield and hostess of the evening Alfre Woodard.
Alfre‘s Sistahs’ Soiree takes place during the tail end of award season right before the Oscars. It’s a statement and message to the industry — particularly for black women and women of color.
Alfre Woodard started the event during award season to celebrate women of color “who have ever been nominated for an acting Oscar and those, who in a perfect world, should have been.”
The 2020 Oscars are set to air this coming Sunday, February 9, live on ABC!
