Still watching Becoming on Netflix. Last I checked it was number 6 on the most watched list. Are you watching it?

In a nation where efforts to deny Black contributions to world history are ever rising, I’m more committed than ever to sharing our stories. Last week, I was honored to speak with over 300 students across 10 classes about the Tuskegee Airmen’s contributions to Double Victory in WWII. My grandfather was an original Tuskegee Airman and took the…

It’s been 1 month since I closed Gypsy on Broadway. This particular contract gave me an unusual, almost magical amount of free(ish) time. So I set & met some dressing room screenwriting goals. It’s amazing how much you can get done when you’re not worried about hustling for your next paycheck. I’m happy to say that after a month almost…

Hey, can we know in advance whether or not we’re supposed to honor Nick Fuentes at some point, and believe that he’s not a white supremacist? That would help us brothers and sisters out. Thanks!

Let me be clear: Good people do NOT follow Charlie Kirk. Good people don’t rationalize his actions or his speech. I don’t care how much you love your kids, pray, or help old people across the street. Good people do not love a virulent white supremacist and racist.

Full stop.

Make America Great “Again”. Some small items to remind folks why many of us aren’t in a hurry to get back to the “good ole days” (whenever those were).

From August 30, 2014

I helped set up a vintage beauty museum/collection today. Had my hands on everything from face powder and compacts from the 1920’s to makeup used by Max Factor on set.

This is a really excellent doc that I suggest everyone check out. It goes way beyond entertainment and explores how groundbreaking it was for Ed Sullivan to feature Black performers on his show, as well as the pushback he got for it behind the scenes and publicly. It’s on Netflix now.

Here’s a normal conservative that I didn’t hate. I didn’t agree with his positions, but I can acknowledge that, within a democratic society, they were valid positions on the political spectrum, and not fascist. And I enjoyed his television appearances.

Give it up for the funky grandpa!

QUESTION: What is something you love about your culture (culture such as ethnicity, nationality, profession, organization; any identity group)?

One thing I will always LOVE about Black folks, is we will hype you up if you are genuine (not weird) and want to join us in something. Look at the love the brothas… Read more
