Danai Gurira and I also spoke briefly about social media in the current US climate.
DG said she’s been not posting much even though her team would suggest posts, she declined them.

It’s fantastic news isn’t it?
At #IconsOfCulture DG mentioned running away from acting and/or acting chasing her (I forget exactly how she worded it) but now I’m wondering how this role won her over. 🤔
However it happened, I’m looking forward to it.
I asked Danai about writing books, skin care, & pet ownership.
There was so much I wanted to know but my brain kept shutting down.
& she was so patient.
The pic of her smiling & waving at me as she called my name is one I will cherish for the rest of my life.

Finally home, decompressing
Gathering my recollections from talking with Danai Gurira
So grateful to God for this opportunity.
Took pics before, during, & after.
This is one I took while people were finding their seats.
Her manager was seated in the back near me

As Danai was leaving the Performing Arts Center, she said “I meant to give you a shoutout” and called my name.
Can you believe she knows my name?

I just met the amazingly talented & beautiful Danai Gurira.
She signed my script copy that I won from the charity auction with Scott Gimple.
I’m so grateful to God for blessing me with such an awesome & inspirational experience.
