We're losing so many greats: Nelson Mandela, Maya Angelou and now Ruby Dee. Hoping we honor their legacy, as we stand on their shoulders.

It's going to be interesting to see what the @BETAwards do for Maya Angelou and Ruby Dee, IF they even do anything. pic.twitter.com/JMEwbFLnDj

Ruby Dee made it possible for me to even consider theatre as an option. She showed me that nuanced portrayals of black women exist.
