[on The Birth of a Nation (2016)] I don’t want this to be a film. I want it to be a movement. I don’t want it to be a moment in time. I want a launch pad for conversation around how we can deal with our trauma collectively. Then we can create a cultural shift. [2016]

[on Nat Turner] He became my hero in college. I never heard about him until I went to college. [2016]
