It’s been a busy month back in the US, talking about all the work that I’ve been blessed to be part of, of late. This article with @mrfeelgoodhq is a particularly cool one, not least because it captures me in my new home (where #Brooklyn at?! 🙌🏾) but also because it feels like me. I love stories, always have. To get to tell them in such varied way’s is a privilege I’ll always cherish. Link is in my story today, or at mrfeelgood.com Hope you enjoy the read ✌🏾 ••• Styling: @tiffanygiffordstyle Threads: @allsaints Photographer: @rollmannyc Magazine: @mrfeelgoodhq Editor/Co-founder: @jbp007 Editor/Co-founder: @petesamson Epic team: @slatepr ••• As an actor and an activist, Chiké Okonkwo has dedicated his life to “telling stories that can change outcomes.” On the big screen, he’s best known for his role in the 2016 slavery revenge drama ‘The Birth of a Nation’; on the small screen, he’s currently offering fantasy escapism alongside critical suicide awareness in the popular new @nbc drama ‘#LaBrea’; on video games consoles, he’s starring as a soldier in the upcoming ‘@callofduty Vanguard’, bringing recognition to the real-life heroism of Black British paratrooper Sgt Sidney Cornell; and on our phones, he helps us find peace by reading sleep stories for the meditation app @calm . He is forcing positive change with his storytelling away from the cameras too, working in prisons as a supporter of restorative justice, in particular sharing the story of a man on death row, Chris Young, which brought him some mercy before his execution. Here’s Chiké’s story.
