I Know I Had My Equivalents In Adrian Lester And Lenny James When I Was At Drama School. I Remember David Harewood Doing 'othello' At The National, And Adrian Lester Having Done Cheek By Jowl's Famous 'as You Like It And Company' At The Donmar.

I Truly Believe That One Of The Things That Has Been Lacking In America Is A Spirit Of Repentance About The Injustices Of Slavery And The Injustices Of Segregation And Racism Generally.
