Amma Asante Quotes
The reality is that we’re in very politicized times. The complete antithesis of Obama is Trump. We are in very polarized times. People are taking a very strong view after a period of time, I think, where people fell asleep on politics to a certain extent.

Whoever lives for poetry must read everything. How often has the light of a new idea sprung for me from a simple brochure!
