For some, it was a much harsher world than the one we see today. The fact that Strode was of Black and Indigenous ancestry makes his transition to Hollywood and subsequent success that much more impressive.

It was incredible to reconnect artistically after all these years and hand the reins over to someone that I have spent hours punishing with my plans for the fiction and film sides of the SpiritWorld project.
