I think there's a lot of things that occur within the African-American community, that we would prefer to stay within the African-American community - that we get a little nervous when you start having scenes or dialogue that we know is going to be viewed and heard on a national or global scale. ↗

Sometimes shooting on a smaller scale, as long as things don't blow out of proportion, is very liberating. ↗
