"But were you worried about playing an Indian musl

"But were you worried about playing an Indian muslim gay woman?" I can't tell you how often I got and still get that question about #icantthinkstraight. My answer then and now has always simply been, "No. Love is love and when I read this script, I was deeply taken with the beautiful love story Shamim brought to life. It was a privilege to tell this story." The politics and societal reactions to the film was something I was naively unprepared for. I couldn't fathom how some could send me messages filled with such hate and loathing. Even death threats. I also couldn't have imagined how much of an impact this and #TheWorldUnseen have made around the world. For those who finally saw themselves and feel a connection to these characters, it means the world. It's more than any actor could wish for. As someone who is trying to make the world a little better from my little world, I choose to focus on the love. And for those of you who still don't get it, I'm here, ready to welcome you to the other side, the side of love, acceptance, and respect, with open arms. Everyone deserves a chance at a happy ending. @lisaraniray @shamimsarif @hananfkattan 🌈❤️🙏🏽 #representationmatters #lgbt

International Day against #Homophobia - this is for every LGBTQI+ person out there who cannot be open for fear of family, religion, culture or the law. I get messages from women every day who suffer in denying who they are. I was you. I see you, and will never stop telling your stories. And believe that you can have a happy ending too. No matter what. A huge thank you to those who supported me on this journey - including @hananfkattan @beneaththesheetz @lisaraniray @aseematographer @officialrebeccaferguson and the friends who made these films possible #lgbtq🌈 #loveislove #nohate #bewhoyouare

Thrilled that @beneaththesheetz, author of the delightful picture book ALWAYS ANJALI, stopped by the latest episode of This Writer’s Life to share creative advice for kids from her own process. She shows us the behind-the-scenes of how much rewriting and revising she does and inspires with encouragement that everyone has a unique story to tell.

“But you said she (Anna May Wong) deserved the p

“But you said she (Anna May Wong) deserved the part.

Yes, but if she had gotten it, the picture's not a hit.

How do you know that?...You never made the movie so how do you know its not a hit?... Folks in this town don't understand the power they have. Movies don't just show us how the world is, they show us how the world can be and if we change the way movies are made...take a chance and make a different kind of story, you can change the world." This was part of the exchange between a director
@darrencriss and a studio exec #JoeMantello @hollywoodnetflix. The director wanted to make a movie with #AnnaMayWong as the star. This scene and every scene with @michellekrusiec as this legend got to me. Unfortunately so many of us have many of these stories etched in our journeys. Gut wrenching to watch Anna win the Oscar that should've been hers.
@michellekrusiec you are stunning and sublime. So proud and can’t wait to see this biopic with you at the center.
Thank you @mrrpmurphy for bringing this all too familiar and sadly still relevant story to the forefront.
Let's do better.

I have been overwhelmed with rage these past month

I have been overwhelmed with rage these past months as more and more senselessly get ill and/or die. I also (hopefully) had my last active cancer treatment in the midst of this madness. Writing about it has helped tremendously. Thank you CNN for publishing my piece. ‘If cancer doesn’t kill me, this government will.’ 🙏🏽❤️ Full piece on CNN opinion.

Who needs a PSA about social distancing when we can watch our favourite female characters showing us how it’s done...In these times I thought it might cheer us all up if I post a series of clips from our movies this week that prove that love can flourish even with #socialdistancing.
First up #TheWorldUnseen, where @beneaththesheetz proves that flirting with @lisaraniray can happen at more than 2 meters apart…
