I'm very concerned with what's going on the news, but I would not call myself a political animal, per se. I pay more attention during election years, or if I see some topic or issue that I care about. But I would never call myself a political animal or political junkie.

For me, as a child, I certainly thought that there were more black people in the world than white people.

I think the reason I went into theater, ultimately, was because that was one of multicultural groups. Because you identify with other people that share similar passions to you, so it didn't matter how much melanin was in their skin.

I have always, or for the most part, identified myself as a biracial person.

We share plates [with Jordan Peele], and we also very often will sit in the corner and kind of speak in our own language.

I have always, or for the most part, identified myself as a biracial person. Much to the chagrin of a lot of African-American people that I meet, because it's almost like there's a betrayal, an intrinsic betrayal: "Don't do that, brotha, we need you. We need you here, in this fold."

I get overwhelmed when I approach things intellectually.
