Black Quotes

A lot of times black actors get stuck in a box. They’re up against a lot of limitations for the kind of films that they get approached about. It’s easy to get stuck in a box and just be approached about nothing but urban films Picture Quote #1

I am proud of my black roots and of the black blood that runs in my veins Picture Quote #1

Yeah, even a black comedy. Where it’s a little eerie. I’d love to do that. But there are about three really fabulous ones on the air now and I don’t know if I can do any better than that. I’d like to sort of forge new ground Picture Quote #1

Every day of my life I walk with the idea I am black no matter how successful I am Picture Quote #1

When I played, I received racial abuse but I was just one of a few black players and we weren’t backed up by the authorities Picture Quote #1

I was a goth girl in high school. Perhaps the powdered white face and the black lipstick were not the most attractive. I felt fabulous at the time but looking back, uh, probably not the best idea Picture Quote #1

I do remember doing shows strictly in black and white, too, so you’re right Picture Quote #1

Most of today’s black convicts have come to understand that they are the most abused victims of an unrighteous order Picture Quote #1

In video you are starting with nothing but a black screen. There’s no game there. With pinball you at least start with that basic concept, but not with video. The challenge of going from no game to something today is only different because you have to create something so damn fun people will pay $1.00 every two minutes to play it Picture Quote #1

You know why we’re stuck with the myth that only black people have soul? Because white people don’t let themselves feel things Picture Quote #1

The television industry doesn’t like to see the compexity of the world. It prefers simple reporting, with simple ideas: this is white, that’s black; this is good, that’s bad Picture Quote #1
