, Anthony Anderson's buttoned-up Dre. Instead, he's prone to cursing and throwing adult temper tantrums, and has an affinity for Moët rosé. He's very much a proud product of Inglewood, even though he hides a bunch of valuables when his relatives come to visit.
Kenya Barris and Rashida Jones appear on"#blackAF." The new Netflix series releases on April 17, 2020.I feel like it was the scariest thing I have ever done. But every show writer should do it—I swear, even if it's just a small part—because it makes you a better writer. You start understanding that the words you're saying, someone actually has to say that.
Throughout my career, I've really been a proponent of diversity and representation, and I realize that people's experiences have been really harsh. I really understand that. I'm not going to count the shades of people that I've cast, because that's not something I do. The thing that I was trying to make had a certain kind of tableau that I wanted to be a part of [the show]. So I really understand everyone's experiences, and I know that it's real for them.
My kids, I wanted them to feel free. I wanted them to be respectful. I wanted them to be kind. But I wanted them to have some of those same freedoms and nuances that white parents have that allowed [their kids] to feel like they could take over the world, be the best that they could be and say the things they need to say. It's a tradeoff constantly, and I'm constantly struggling with it.
It's interesting because it was a big part of what made me do this show. The first bit of money I made, I bought a Ferrari. Since I was a little kid I wanted one. So I got one, and it had 200 miles on it, and it's just been sitting at the house because I feel stupid driving it. One day I got offered tickets to floor seats at a [basketball] game, and I asked my daughter if she wanted to go. She wanted to take the Ferrari because she had never been in it. So we go to the game.
