I feel very responsible for young models of colour. They come to me and tell me they're not getting jobs, and I do what I can to speak up for them.

For me, I actively look for projects that showcase people of color.

I love putting people to work of color.

We need more people working in the publishing industry itself who are people of colour.

There are many people of color who are very talented.

As I got further into my career, as a character of color, if I was going to have the types of opportunities I felt I deserved, and continue to have them, I was going to have to start creating those opportunities for myself.

I general don't color my stuff - I'm pretty horrible with color. Usually, I'll get one of my cartoonist friends to help me out.

You always make a film with the hope that all types of people will want to see your work and that it doesn't matter about your color, but unfortunately it still does.

I am definitely a person of color.

In my work as an actress and an activist, I've spent many years working with low income communities and people of color who don't always have a voice in our political process.
