My life has been a protest: Viola
Actor Viola Davis says all her actions in life have always been acts of protest.
In an interview, Davis shared that her protests did not begin with the surge in racial justice activism this year.
“I feel like my entire life has been a protest. My production company is my protest. Me not wearing a wig at the Oscars in 2012 was my protest. It is a part of my voice, just like introducing myself to you and saying, ‘Hello, my name is Viola Davis',” she said.
