I'm passionate about what I do. I'd be naive to be passive.
hollywood-films black written
When they were making black films in the '60s and the '70s, everyone knew their place, if you get my drift. You understand? Everyone knew the rules, and everyone knew their place. Everyone knew what to say. They had the written rules in Hollywood film, and the unwritten rules.

An audience can be like a pack of wolves.

If you have money and you have fame, but you don't have any confidence in your blackness, then it's all for nothing.
