I respect her opinion. typecasting is tiring. at the same time when she says that 18 to 34 yr olds don't care about race I disagree. We as black people rarley have a knowledge of self , of who we are. Do away with the Roots roles, but we did have a history before slavery. think outside the box. when are we going to star and get the leads in these epic movies that tells about us and our history thousands of yrs ago. I would love to dee her, regina hall, morris, ect play in these 100 million dollar blockbusters, with leading roles. Don't ignore who you are miss union because race does matter. It's comments like those that make us as a people look ignorent, because we don't have enough sense or too afraid to step outside the box and try something new. Race does matter
