"Its kind of fun to do the impossible." - Walt Disney.
Ντανιέλα. Santita. I'm a storyteller. I play Chaser for the Faneuil Falcons at Emerson, where the stage and The Cave are my home away from home. I speak conversational Na'Vi, be forewarned. I am a Dreamer and the daughter of a King. I believe in the miracle of Love and its ability to conquer all. I'm a New England DJ. I'm someone's friend. I'm someone's daughter, someone's family member, someone's favorite cousin - and I couldn't be happier about that. I'm really just a kid, I know I always will be. My imagination is my best feature. I am absolutely taken with life and this blog is the way I remember the things that make me smile, or make me think. I'm still figuring it all out. I hope I make you smile or think (or both) while you're here, too. DFTBA. ;)

"It is saying these things that keeps us from falling apart. And...by imagining these futures, we can make them real." -JG
Hollywood is a business. And I don’t fault it for that. It’s a business about money and advertising, and we don’t translate in the foreign market. And a lot of people want to indict Hollywood for that, but I don’t think it’s just an indictment on Hollywood; it may be more of an indictment on people who go to the theatre to put their money down – to see what? You see a film with a predominantly black cast and you don’t see it as inclusive, but you see a film with a predominantly white cast and it is. Why? I want to be a pioneer; I want to take on the responsibility and the weight of something bigger than myself, which is more diverse storylines, especially for African-American actresses. But I can only do what I do. I certainly can’t change Hollywood’s complete perception of black actresses – I need help.
