Ruth Wilson
Racism, specifically, is the state-sanctioned or extralegal production and exploitation of group-differentiated vulnerability to premature death.
Ruth Wilson
I come from the south, so you're useless and you're a bit pathetic. That's the first thing that the northerners think of you.
Ruth Wilson

I'd quite like to do a film but I'd also love to do more theatre. I want to keep challenging myself with good roles. It's harder for women because there aren't as many challenging roles.
