I‘ll admit that I picked this one up for the Lando of it all, but what an interesting man/life! He had a fascinating, art- and culture-immersed youth in NYC (and more than once referred to himself and his peers being part of the “Black bourgeoisie”), followed by far more accomplishments on the stage and screen than I‘d realized. He‘s very intellectually engaged and shares a lot about his (complicated and sometimes almost contradictory) ⬇️
Christine views on race and romance and life. Plus he was good friends with James Baldwin?! The audiobook has its quirks but worth it for the emotion that comes through in several parts. 2mo
marleed Oh gosh it‘s been years since I‘ve seen him in the movie Mahogany with Diana Ross, but that was my pre Star Wars introduction to him. I swooned😍😍 2mo
Aimeesue That‘s a most excellent title, too 😁 2mo
Christine @marleed Oh fun! I had never heard of that movie but his writing about it/working with Diana Ross makes me want to check it out, as does your comment! 😄 2mo
Christine @Aimeesue Indeed! 2mo
