awards, Chadwick, bringing you
on stage.
>> I just want to acknowledge
somebody that's here today,
James Shaw Jr.
Where are you?
Stand.
>> Calling out your name, what
was that moment?
>> There was 8 billion people,
one guy wins the hero of the
year award and he thinks to
bring you up there.
>> This is going to live at your
house.
>> I thank him for bringing the
highlight to gun violence,
showing how important it is, how
relative it is in our country.
I just can't say thank you
enough.
>> When you walked offstage, was
there a moment that you were
able to have?
>> Yeah.
He spoke with me.
He spoke to me as an equal.
He didn't speak down to me or
make it seem like it was just
for the lights.
There was nothing but words of
you deserve this.
You're the real -- you know,
you're the real hero.
Just words of appreciation and
just love for one another.
>> Knowing now Chadwick, who won
the best hero but again fighting
the battle he fought, he said
you're fighting battles right
now still from that day in the
waffle house.
>> You really don't know what
people are going through.
You really don't know how to put
the loss of such an influential
young brother into words.
What I do know is that his
legacy, the human being that
Chadwick Boseman was, should
live on.
I hope it can live on through
me, even though I only met him
once.
>> You already are, brother.
