I keep people around me that have the freedom to challenge my heart and motive.

I have two boys on the autism spectrum. I don't always know what's best for them. However, I know there is grace for me in this area. I know there are parents in a similar space.

My mom used to get involved with the Black Panther activities in Los Angeles. For me it was more about how to view my consciousness on these issues with a biblical framework.

We think everyone but us need the unadulterated truth.

I love that Jesus showed He cared while at the same time telling the truth.

I understood my personal responsibility in putting Christ on the cross and the implications of how the Gospel impacts every area of life. It informs my identity as a human, as an artist, and as a citizen of this country.

Keep compassion close to your chest at all times.
