“A lot of college graduates approach me about becoming screenwriters. I tell them, 'Do not become a screenwriter, become a journalist,' because journalists go into worlds that are not their own.

At the age of twenty-three they haven't produced anything, and that's the end of the career.”

It's not just about race, it's also about the LGBT community too and others.”
