The point she made about Lupita Nyong'o is so true. Jennifer Lawrence, a talented actress get's thrown quality leading roles from left to right. Lupita Nyong'o another talented actress will not have the privelege to have have quality leading roles thrown at her from left to right. This is all because of Hollywood's standards for favoring whiteness.
Less than 3 minutes of screen time in 12 Years A Slave, but gave one of the most transcendent performances I've ever seen on film. Bravo, Alfre Woodard.
once again an excellent interviewer with an excellent interviewee, just so wonderful to hear a passionate discussion about humanity beyond a surface level argument
Great actress who has been in countless films sharing the screen with some of the world's finest actors and yet I couldn't remember her name to save my life.What a shame.
Study history. Study the Moors conquering Europe. Study the ancient civilizations of Mali, Songhai, Kemet, Moors in Ireland, Scotland, and Scandinaviah, Egypt, Kush, Ethiopia, Africa, The Olmecs, etc etc The HUE-MANS have an EPIC history, slavery was just a bump in the road.
Could somebody..anybody PLEASE EXPLAIN her role in 12 Years A Slave? WHY was she acting like a plantation mistress? I just didn't understand her character!
She is such an underrated Talent. Her range is broad, I have been fortunate enough to see her on the stage as well as film! Awesome Actor!
Ms. Woodard is a phenomenal talent. It is shameful that her talent is not as widely broadcasted. It seems that the Halle Berries are in the forefront.
This is the most genius interview I have ever seen and heard. I wanted it to go on forever. Thank you, Alfre!
I appreciate Ms. Woodard's candor and the lesson. I hope the interviewer took some notes too. I want to see her in more roles that stretch her talent.

melancholy grl Thank God for Black Panther. She has been a big hit these days.
Lawrence is overrated
But it’s also a case of decent parts just not being written for black actresses.
I could listen to this amazing woman speak all day!
