Default Grey's Anatomy star Jesse Williams earns a standing ovation after powerful BET Awards speech denouncing racism in America



Grey's Anatomy actor Jesse Williams won a standing ovation at last night's BET Awards after a rousing acceptance speech calling for black America to unite against a 'system built to divide and impoverish'.

The Black Lives Matter activist was declared humanitarian of the year at the annual prize-giving.

But far from resting on his laurels, the former public school teacher used his moment in the spotlight to continue his work highlighting the continuing plight of black people in the United States.

He told a TV audience of millions: 'This award is not for me.

'This is for the real organisers all over the country, the activist, the civil rights attorneys, the struggling parents, the families, the teachers, the students that are realising that a system built to divide and impoverish and destroy us cannot stand if we do.

'It's kinda basic mathematics: the more we learn about who we are and how we got here the more we will mobilise.'

He went on: 'Now, what we've been doing is looking at the data and we know that police somehow manage to de-escalate, disarm and not kill white people every day. That's because Whites don't act like backward primitive savages. So what's going to happen is we're going to have equal rights and justice in our own country or we will restructure their function and ours.'
