OH SHIT! I don’t usually write short post, but it’s like I just received my first up vote on Steemit. By way of the Huffington Post, and reported by Lilly Workneh, Halle Berry, has just announced she would and I quote “My Undying Wish Is to Play Angela Davis In a Biopic.” And, I know all of you are like “Who the hell is Angela Davis?” She’s just amazing! She was African American at a time when the odds were clearly Tsunami against her. To add she was a Black Panther, a woman at a time women's rights were practically non-existent, a female professor at UCLA in a male dominated profession at the time, AND she went up against the FBI and won. Again, she did all this in the seventies. Yes, there is still much work to be done, but the odds were tremendous and for that and much more she is amazing.

Now, over to why I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to see Halle Berry, play Miss Angela Davis, besides the fact she can act! Halle also expresses, “She’s just fascinating: the era she lived in, the Black Panthers and all that they stood for, and her connection to it, or not to it. I have a lot of respect for how she lived her life.” This coming from a woman whom herself has broken down a lot of doors for not only African Americans, but women as well.

So, if there is anyone reading this post and has the means to make Halle Berry’s undying wish and my wish of seeing this movie come true please, MAKE IT HAPPEN.

Side Note: She’s also has a friendship with Assata Shakur (Tupac Shakur’s Aunt), by way of the Black Panther Party.

And, then there's a reference in Kendrick's Lamar's, (Ahhh! high pitched scream so sexi) new song Element, about Pac pulling a Machiavelli and landing where his aunt now lives in exile Cuba.
