So I just wanted to 436 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:21,959 Speaker 2: get your take on that because it did come up 437 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: in the movie and I know it's scripted, but I 438 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:24,959 Speaker 2: want to hear in real life. 439 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: You know, Grace, what do you think. 440 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 4: Blackness cannot be quantified? Period? It can't be you know 441 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 4: what I mean. 442 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,920 Speaker 6: And we were saying this earlier, but like, there are 443 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 6: black Being black is across the globe, right, So you 444 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 6: have people in Africa that are black, people in the 445 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 6: Caribbean that are black, people in America that are black, 446 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 6: people in Europe that are black. You have so many 447 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 6: different types of black people, and really it's like you 448 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 6: just have to know where you have come from and 449 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 6: what's in your DNA. Right, So, even being biracial myself like, 450 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 6: I got so used to people being like, oh my gosh, 451 00:19:58,119 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 6: but you ain't black. 452 00:19:58,680 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 4: Though you mixed, you ain't black. 453 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 7: Tell you what. 454 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 6: I was born out of my black mother's body. That 455 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 6: is what is in my DNA. I grew up with 456 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 6: my black family. That is how I identify. No one 457 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 6: can take that from you, you know what I mean. 458 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 6: And so it's like you just have to understand. Like 459 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 6: and of course it even like Antonette will say, right, Antona, 460 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 6: who's also on the show, like her blackness was accosted 461 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 6: as well, too, right, you talked about that as well. Right, 462 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 6: So it's like people, it doesn't even matter how dark 463 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,159 Speaker 6: or how light you are, people are still going to 464 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 6: try to quantify your blackness based on what you do, 465 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,439 Speaker 6: like you said, how you speak, or the experiences that 466 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 6: you might have had. But I think the realness about 467 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 6: it is knowing who you are, knowing your history, knowing 468 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 6: where you've come from, and standing in that. And if 469 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 6: someone just wants to look at you and just be like, well, 470 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 6: I don't think you're black enough because of XYZ. That's you. 471 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 6: You did not live my experience, You don't have my experience. 472 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 6: You cannot tell me who I actually am. 473 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: Have you always felt like that or did it take 474 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 1: a while for you? 475 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 6: It took a while because what happen is is that 476 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 6: people would say, you know, I would people I would say, well, 477 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,719 Speaker 6: I'm black, and people would say, well, no, you're not, 478 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 6: because you're half white. And then I would go, I 479 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 6: am half white, So does that make me not black? No, 480 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 6: I am biracial. Culturally, I identify as black. I know that 481 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 6: about myself. 482 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 1: There we go, you know what I mean? 483 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 4: Talk right? 484 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 5: I love. 485 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:29,919 Speaker 1: Out here like I'll kill a. 486 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 4: Shut out gun. 487 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 5: Right. I think in every community you will have the 488 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 5: stratifying right, like even being the Nigerian American. 489 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 4: When I go back to Nigeria, They're like. 490 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 5: Nigeria and Nigerian, I'm like, I don't know what that 491 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 5: means because I got beat like y'all did, Like you know, 492 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 5: all the things that in my in my Ninejerian household, 493 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 5: y'all grew up with it too. I just had a 494 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 5: blue passport, you know, And so I don't the strategy 495 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 5: that's stratisfying the blackness will happen across the globe. But 496 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 5: one thing I do know that unifies blackness wherever I am, 497 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 5: if I skin of the black person. 498 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 4: I don't care what continent. 499 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 5: I'm like, hey, what's I was in London, I was like, hey, 500 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 5: how you doing? 501 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 6: What you know? What I love about that is that 502 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 6: not only will we acknowledge each other, but we'll congregate. 503 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 4: We'll be like all the black people on the left side. 504 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 6: Of the road. 505 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,360 Speaker 5: I've been getting mad when they don't speak back, like no, no, no, no, 506 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 5: you don't you don't identify like. 507 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 4: You do it? What they're not black? 508 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm I feel like if you don't, if they 509 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 5: don't say whatever, like you are black. 510 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 4: That's what it is. Like when I was in the DR, 511 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 4: I'm like, no, I don't do that. Don't do that. 512 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 5: Y'all identify as us, okay, because you're talking to me. 513 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 3: That's the thing to like. What I love about the 514 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,640 Speaker 3: film is we bring a lot of that that conversation together. Yeah, 515 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 3: because we talk about it like the idea of like 516 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 3: who's blackest and who's not blackest? But we bring it together. 517 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 3: So we call out that stereotype, We call out that 518 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 3: trope to bring it to a greater conversation, which I 519 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 3: think is like you said, humorous and also intelligent because 520 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 3: the reality is we all walk out the doors. People 521 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 3: of color, we're gonna have somewhat of the similar experience, 522 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 3: especially in America. So it's like who is the blackest, 523 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 3: who's not the blackest? Listen, there's experiences that we've all 524 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 3: had with they'll tell you, and they're not gonna question 525 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 3: the variance of it.

You get pigeonholed a lot. 710 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 4: And now we know that. 711 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 5: You can play a thug, sangster, crime boss, criers. 712 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: A lot of your roles. 713 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 2: I feel like you're a very confident, successful women in 714 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 2: your roles.
