To be young, gifted and black,
Oh what a lovely precious dream
Nina Simone
“We all know what it’s like to be told that there is not a place for you to be featured. Yet you are young, gifted and Black. We know what it’s like to be told there’s not a screen for you to be featured on, a stage for you to be featured on. We know what it’s like to be the tail and not the head. We know what it’s like to be beneath and not above. That is what we went to work with every day. Because we knew … that we had something special that we wanted to give the world. That we could be full human beings in the roles that we were playing. That we could create a world that exemplified a world that we wanted to see.”
Chadwick Boseman (1976–2020)

Chadwick knew he had a limited amount of time left on this earth so he lived every single day to the fullest. He made five fantastic movies, brought a king to life on our screens, marched in the streets for the rights of so many people, and married the woman he loved.
Don’t just remember Chadwick for the movies he made. Remember him for the incredible man that he was. Because he lived. He lived.

Anyone that encourages intellectual, emotion, artistic or spiritual growth is worth keeping. Don’t let them go.
