I always thought he might have been a bigger star. I remember him telling me that he was going up for "non-black" parts and dealing with that experience in Hollywood. Must be hard for a brotha to do his thing.<BR/><BR/>In terms of actors, I'd add Jeffrey Wright to the list. Or is he too big for this list already?<BR/><BR/>As far as music artists go, I think this sista JOI should be the biggest star in the world, easing her soul-rock fusion into every ear possible.

It's difficult for them to find lead roles because leading roles for african-american is so type cast. Look how long it's taken Terrence Howard to gain recognition? Derek Luke (Antwon Fisher) is another great young actor stricken to play a typical black male roles when he played Boobie Miles (athlete) in "Friday Night Lights" and is playing a basketball player (athlete) in "Glory Road." When are we every going to see black leads in a films like "Sideways" or "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind?"Inside Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04355812934087179553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9807422.post-1129598707156093022005-10-17T18:25:00.000-07:002005-10-17T18:25:00.000-07:00From Va Beach, my hometown, will be back next week...From Va Beach, my hometown, will be back next weekend!
