And while we destroy / Our children will grow / Not missing the things they'll never know / A crime against them / Against you and me / A crime against all humanity
A mother's love is supposed to be unconditional. That you could give your child up, over their sexuality, is unthinkable.

I'm not just considered a former child star. I'm not considered a black actress. I'm not considered an actress. I've done roles that were written for men.
