Africa Is Trying To Find Its Way

I Turned Down A Lot Of Easier Opportunities In Order To Go For The Things That I Really And Ultimately Wanted To Do. And What's Really Nice Is That It's Starting To Work. I've Been An Actor For Coming Up On 14 Years Now And The Level Of Activity That's Taking Place Now Is A Culmination Of A Slow Cooker Approach To As Opposed To A Microwave.

Female Directors, Directors Of Color Are A Big Thing For Me, Which Are Both Important Voices And Potent Voices That Need To Be Heard. That's How I Want To Engage Myself As An Actor Going Forward.

Because I Was Aspirational, I Did My Work, I Was Respectful To My Teachers, I Experienced A Lot Of Bullying From The Black Kids. My Friends Were Largely White Or Asian.

One Of The Occupational Hazards Of Being An Actor, The Reason Why So Many Actors Are Insecure, Is That The Only Way We Know We're Good Is When Other People Tell Us.
