Actors are no strangers to self-doubt, fear, and rejection.

The love, support, and respect the members of the theater community have for one another is unparalleled. Say what you want about us wacky drama-types, but one thing that makes our business special is our loyalty, our fierce commitment to one another, and our mutual respect.

Race, to me, is a very blurry thing.

Little white lies are part of everyday life. If youre in court being charged with a felony, youre probably going to be tempted to lie. Or if your girlfriend asks you if the sweater she is wearing makes her look fat youre going to lie because you love that person. There are different reasons and justifications to lie its human nature.

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender teens are bullied and ostracized in epidemic proportions. It's disgusting, and it must change.

Sometimes, growing up, I tried to be very Latina I would change my voice... experiment with my hair a lot, trying to figure out who I was in a primarily white school.

I read that a lot of people think Im gay. I dont care. My boyfriend and I are not really phased by what people say.
