I made my first white women friends in college; they loved me and were loyal to our friendship, but I understood, as they did, that they were white women and that whiteness mattered.

I go out with white women. This makes a lot of people unhappy, mostly black women.

One lady told me that before she saw 'Sounder' she didn't believe black people could love each other, have deep relationships in the same way as white people.

We have to remember that people are free to love who they want to love. That also means that black women are free to love who they want to love.

I love all people, whatever race they are.

I was conscious of the fact that it could be to my disadvantage to marry a white guy - that some folks would hold that against me.

I relate to both my Caucasian side and my African side, and I love that.

I love women.
