“For me to watch Black Panther as the person I am—and I know this sounds crazy to a lot of people—but it is a very emotional thing, it was a very emotional thing for me to watch it, I was born and raised in South Africa during the apartheid era, and I am very much a white African who lived and thrived under tremendously dark circumstances. And that really marks you as a person. Whether that’s your ideology or not, you’re living in it.”

With her past childhood experiences, she went through, she is now grateful for her position as a famous Hollywood actor who can travel the world and figure out what is right and wrong and what she needed to understand about the world.
