All ethnic/urban films good or bad from 1900 to NOW~
But my all time favorite for the ages. Raisn in the Sun, w/ Sidney Poitier, Rudy Dee.. So Great..Sweet, Sweet Bacck Badd Ass.. I snuck in to the XXX theater and saw my first sexual scene. I think Adult films are beter back in the day
Television
All urban TV good or bad from 1950 to NOW.They paved the way for all of us to follow. From Amos & Andy to Martin...
West Coast Black Television Network (WCBN)CBTV,VJTV,former Soul Beat in Oakland,first 24 hr Black TV Network.
I like FUSE, BFC, Word, IFC, Sundance,VH1 Soul, MTV2, BETJ. I wish the majors would look at our programming and see we can be a hit for them,like a Bravo or BlackStarz.
Books
Sonja Sanchez/ Nikki Giovanni/ all street stories 4 urban folks. Marcus Garvey. The story & life of Bill Cosby. What a drama:)he has become. I read more newspapers and magazines. But we do many marketing writers on book tours.
We want writiers to submitt there stories to be filmed.
Heroes
My Mother/Father/My Brother & Sister/KPOO FM & Jim Gabbert-Ch20/DCTV & The Johnson's who helped me launch my TV Network out of Denver,CO. Emmitt Powell & The Elites Gospel Group & promoter, he influenced my radio/music/producer career. Also I admire all Independent Black/Latin filmmakers & indie TV producers and artors who struggled with nothing and then "Blam" Hit show! All the indie record labels & underground businesses that keep it real. We need to go back to playing real instruments & vocal lessons to keep it real. Sorry the young artist is lazy for quick cash and the JOY of a crowd lovin them is gone!

Who I'd like to meet: Mandela, also Stevie Wonder.Sometimes I wish could have met Redd Foxx and the other greats Richard Pryor.Also I like meeting new actors and actresses before they make it. Like Jamie Foxx, or George Lopez. Watching a new actist before they break out is so KOOL.. Thats the real meat of the artist before the money and drugs & the nightlife. MY television network is about distribution urban stories to anybody that wants to see a HERO or HEROess. We as people of color and thoses that LOVE US. we need a hero right now. We know we should look to ourselves, but so many need that inspiration and that word of encouragement. I hope again this television network is not just profitable but inspirational to the whole globe of colored people.
I hope when I'm gone, I become someone's HERO!
