“I think we’re in a time that calls for that level of courage, that level of resolve.”

A space where the conversation surrounding the issues in our country is offering a seat at the table to all the voices to be heard, a murder mystery, and grassroots look at our own humanity as we move through the parts and pieces of the story.

[Harriet Tubman] is a legend, an icon, a soldier on the side of justice, a spiritual warrior, and a servant of God.

Learning about her and the layers of her helps you to see that the same woman who holds a gun and an axe felt feelings for a man.

[Harriet Tubman] lived such a full, complex, and irrefutably-dynamic life that all the craft in the world would be insufficient in honoring her legacy.

The real truth is that [Harriet Tubman ] spirit is so powerful that it consumes you.

She was inspired by being sick and tired of the injustice she was experiencing and she knew she had a right to liberty or death.

We’re living in a time where we all got to stay woke !

Very early on in this process though I studied acting in high school and college, soon after graduation,

As well as the one of the baddest women to literally ever walk the land. I surrendered to her spirit.

It was also incredibly serendipitous that I would later learn I shared a birthday with Whoop [Goldberg ].

An opportunity to honor the legacy of the lives drawn into the lines in my face, the broad of my nose.

Though I developed my own personal spiritual relationship later in life, the foundation they laid is what my faith was built upon.

When you understand the purpose [of life], then you can deal and journey through the obstacles, the rejections, the stops and starts, highs-and-lows with a different lens because you know that you’re moving in what you’re supposed to do.

Thank God for Canada! In the context of this narrative [in Underground] and beyond.

One of the first memories I have was watching Whoopi Goldberg perform her one-woman show on Broadway on HBO.

Canada was certainly an additional option for the many traveling the treacherous terrain of the Underground Railroad in pursuit of what was perceived as “freedom.”

Each guy is charged with upholding his end, nothing more. In golf, the player, coach and official are rolled into one, and they overlap completely.

American society has gone completely into denial.

A man may speak very well in the House of Commons, and fail very completely in the House of Lords.

I remember my first test in F1. After five laps, I came back to the pits and tried to play it cool – ‘Oh yeah, I’m fine, I’m on top of this’ – but I was completely lost.

My story is going to be completely different than someone else’s story in terms of hard work.

There is only one thing that has power completely, and that is love.

But the one thing that has power completely is love, because when a man loves, he seeks no power, and therefore he has power.

I’ve always been completely autocratic. I’ve never learned to be diplomatic or democratic.
