00:00 for you to be able to come home and enjoy Essence Festival as an artist, as an actor?
00:05 It's everything. It's like full circle every time. And just to see your people, people
00:11 that I didn't know, that know, that appreciate the work. And this is home, so it means everything
00:17 to get your flowers here. So it's love.
00:20 You know what's so great about it? Before this interview, y'all prayed together. A family
00:25 that prayed together, stayed together. And it still showed how closely bonded y'all are,
00:29 and that's why the energy come across the screen in a shot like that. This is just great
00:32 to see that, to be able to witness that love that y'all share for each other.
00:35 Bro, I appreciate you saying that, man, because we don't take it lightly, the work that we're
00:39 able to do, the work that Lena created for us to do. We are a family. We are a Chi family,
00:44 a community. It's all about showing positive representation of who and what we are as black
00:50 people and who and what we are as actors and creators in this business. And so Essence
00:55 fast is some place that shows that and allows us to actually be who and what we are.
