Woman I dated back around 1984 who worked at Information Access Company. We spent one Thanksgiving at the Oakland Chorus and were the only straight couple in the room. She was/is an opera singer.

I had an art show in high school and still draw a bit.

You dated THAT? Are you SURE you were the ONLY "straight" couple there? She looks more butch than many men.

Was she a "female" bass? Rut roh...say's Scooby.

We are NOT the same species... I look at that drawing and I don't see a human. I don't see anything sexual about it. It's like looking at an animal...an ape. There is no emotional tie. It could be a dog or a cat...or "her"...no difference.

It's not your artistry...it's the subject.

Zoe Saldana. Dominican too! Zoe Saldana - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoe_Saldana)

Boy that was a misleading title...this is ALL they had to say...

"Actor Joseph Fiennes was cast to play late superstar Michael Jackson in a British made-for-TV movie about a road trip Jackson, Elizabeth Taylor and Marlon Brando took after the September 11 attacks. Some Jackson fans have been dismayed that a white actor would be cast to play the African-American singer."

WHY the link to Zoe Saldana? This is for a completely different movie...
