1. If you were to star in a movie, who would you want to be cast as your love interest?Johnny Depp, although I'd rather it be Morgan Freeman, not as a love interest, but because he is my favorite actor and the one I would most like to meet.

Sofia Vergara. I have the serious hots for that woman even though she's in her 40s.

2. Of the various cultures, ethnicities or nationalities you belong to, which most strongly do you consider yourself?

African-American/Black. It's the easiest identifier and the most outward appearance.

The D-Day Landing at Normandy.

4. Is there a culture you cannot claim heritage from but which you feel quite close to?

3. If you had a time machine, and could witness any one event without altering or disturbing it, what would you want to see? Movies have made this seem trivial. Of course they are merely a Director's interpretation really. I think I'd have to say D-Day.

1. If you were to star in a movie, who would you want to be cast as your love interest?

Too many to name.. depends on which age I was when I watched the movie. Growing up Denzel was the man, but over time, it could've been Taye Diggs, Idris Elba, Isaiah Washington, Boris Kodjoe, and last not but not least, Morris Chestnut. Yes, indeed, these were all my baby daddies at some point and probably a few more that I left off.

2. Of the various cultures, ethnicities or nationalities you belong to, which most strongly do you consider yourself? African-American. While I don't walk around in dashikis and whatnot, I've always had a strong interest in my ethnical background.

3. If you had a time machine, and could witness any one event without altering or disturbing it, what would you want to see? This might sounds weird, but I would've wanted to witness some of the U.S. integration events, such as the nine students integrating Central HS in Little Rock, Arkansas.

What makes it more interesting is that my little brother graduated from there in 2001 and I got tingles when I was there for his graduation.

4. Is there a culture you cannot claim heritage from but which you feel quite close to? I don't feel particularly close to it, but I believe based on the skin tones of some family members that there is some caucasian in our bloodlines.

5. What's on deck for the weekend? Going back home party for my niece.
