My voice is not going to be silenced by anybody.

I will not be silenced or deterred.

For a country to be looted, its people's voice must be silenced.

I like cinema audiences. I respect them, and I talk to them just like I would anybody I know.

I can't talk about the education of black children if I ignored two of my nieces who were a couple of grade levels behind. I believe that charity begins at home, and I take seriously the role of a godfather to fill the gap when the parents aren't doing their job.

We need people who truly live their faith, represent their faith, speaking to the issues of faith through a faith prism as opposed to just having folks talking about faith when there is a crisis.
