“I take every role seriously. Personally, I never look at any role as Michael White. I've done that my entire life. I've never excluded myself because of color. It's never been part of the radar, when I look at anything I do. The majority of the roles that I've played have had very little to do with being black. It doesn't matter what color you are.” LooksLittlesMatterDoneBlackWhiteRolesColorMajorityExcludedRadar Author:Michael Jai White

I feel sorry for the people who live their lives in the negative default setting because they filter out what's good, and that's no way to live.” PeopleWayFeelsRememberBlackNegativeSorrySettingSettingsErasBlack PeopleWay To LiveDefaultFilters Author:Michael Jai White
“Recognizing absolutely depends on the public that I'm out with. If I'm in Atlanta, it's definitely Why Did I Get Married. If I'm in Seattle, it's Spawn or something like that. I'm known for a lot of different things. People will call me Bone a lot, the action aficionados.. People who like comedy, they call me Black Dynamite.” PeopleDifferentActionBlackComedyMarriedBonesCall MeDynamiteSpawn Author:Michael Jai White
