For The First Time Since I Began Acting, I Feel That I've Found My Place In The World, That There's Something Out Of My Own Culture Which I Can Express And Perhaps Help Others Preserve..i Have Found Out Now That The African Natives Had A Definite Culture A Long Way Beyond The Culture Of The Stone Age...an Integrated Thing, Which Is Still Unspoiled By Western Influences...i Think The Americans Will Be Amazed To Find How Many Of The Modern Dance Steps Are Relics Of African Heritage.

I Feel Closer To My Country Than Ever. There Is No Longer A Feeling Of Lonesome Isolation. Instead-peace. I Return Without Fearing Prejudice That Once Bothered Me . . . For I Know That People Practice Cruel Bigotry In Their Ignorance, Not Maliciously
