Me too

We should take something about what he was saying about poc responding to his character for the next title, but it's such a long quote I don't really know how to break it down...

It was difficult. lol Every quote will be too long... this is what I got from it....

Quote:

"For me it's also moving when people of color come up to me and say, "I really responded to your character and that piece because at that time there weren't people that looked like you, that looked like me in that genre. And so, I'm always really moved by that, and that's something that I take from the show that's very important to me."

Because the impact of his character shows that representation matters.
"People of color come up to me and say, 'I really responded to your character and that piece.'"
Because 20 years ago, "there weren't people that looked like me in that genre."
B/c 2 decades ago there weren't people who looked like him in this genre.
"At that time there weren't people that looked like you, that looked like me in that genre."
Because he's always moved by the fans response to his character.

You did a good job! I tried to think of shorter ones, but literally couldn't condense it at all

I like the last one best, but also the first one, which some do you prefer?
