My Mother Was Pretty Much

I'm Proud To Be An American. I'm Proud To Be An African American In America. I've Had Some Interesting Experiences: Some Great, Some Not So Great, But I Love It Here.

I Don't Like Perpetuating The Stereotype Of Black Males Being Drug Dealers, And Criminals.

I Was Very Short When I Was Little, So I Probably Had - And There May Be A Residue Of It Now - That Napoleon Complex. Wanting To Be As Big And As Powerful As The Big Guys.

There Are So Few Guys Who Do Action And Do It Well. Even Fewer Who Are African-american. Even Fewer Who Have Classical-theater Training. So A Cat Like Me Coming In, I'm Bringing All Of That To An Action Movie.

I've Been A Law-abiding Citizen Ever Since I Grew Up In The Bronx, New York.
