What mattered was was the opportunity, which came so seldom to our folks ... Later I came to understand that the Negro artist could not view the matter simply in terms of of his individual interests, and that he had a responsibility to his people who rightfully resented the traditional stereotyped portrayals of Negros on stage and screen.” PeopleLittlesMatterPlayFilmFormArtistActorsOpportunityIndividualTermInterestViewsAttitudeResponsibilityStageImportanceFolksScreensTraditionalPerformersScenariosPrevailingPortrayal Author:Paul Robeson
