People treat actors and people in the public eye differently from how they’d treat anybody else in their lives. You would never come up to a stranger… - Don Cheadle

This [Racism] is a systemic, institutionalized problem that we are all fully aware of.

I think I’m somewhat defined by my race for sure, and I’m good with that and I actually want that to be a part. I think that should be fodder for our work — we should use all aspects of ourselves. I’m always trying to find a place where that’s actually an impact on what I’m doing as opposed to going, “Well, we’re all just people and we’re the same.”

I hope to use my ‘celebrity’ to motivate people and contribute to moving our global society back from the brink. I am surprised environment is not at the top of the agenda. What is more important than food and clean air? We need a big push.
