I remember one day on set we didn’t have enough black actors for a key scene. I had to recruit members of my team to be in front of the camera. Taraja was the first to say yes. Yeah, I’ll do my real job and then jump into this wild scene playing a tough guy with a gun for you. From there, everyone else also said yes. He was that kind of person. A leader. A light. Taraja. His name is like music. We will continue singing it. Bless his soul. Blessed is his memory. Bless his loved ones and the many comrades he leaves here on his journey.”
