"This goes beyond scholarship. This is a lived life for me," said Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor of playing journalist Isabel Wilkerson in 'Origin,' Ava DuVernay's latest film.
"I said, 'You have people in this restaurant now who are Black, who are eating your food, who are working in this restaurant, and you have the flag of the Confederacy, the flag of the Ku Klux Klan on your walls.'"
The film 'Origin' explores challenging conversations on caste with people from different backgrounds, aiming to find connections and understand the origins of discontent.
