-Pelo Malo (2013)
Film tradition has codified standards of representing black and brown people. This can be helpful. It can be devastating. What annoys me is that it is hard for artists to make content separate from the color of their skin or the color of their subjects skin unless they are white. At least, that's what it feels like to me. My goal is to try and normalize life as life and truth as truth. I want to someday watch Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones and for everyone to be brown or black and for this to be ok. I think changing how we think of our fantasy worlds starts by changing how we listen to the other. Listen to what is said not how it is said."
