Danai Gurira doesn’t give in to anyone. Whether she’s in an executive boardroom pitching one of the many television series she’s currently developing, or appearing as General Okoye, in red-and-gold armor with spear in hand, in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, everything Gurira does is an extension of her inner creative urges and is deeply connected with her passion to spotlight Black voices. “Our job is to tell our truth,” the actress, playwright, and producer tells the Cut from her Brooklyn apartment. “I always think if I haven’t made an audience uncomfortable, I haven’t done my job.” Read how @danaigurira continues to do that job in our latest #CutCover feature at the link in bio.
