Talking about the film, Newton said though the role allowed her to heal as a black woman, she hesitated taking it because she did not think she was “dark-skinned” enough for the role. She said: > My internalised prejudice was stopping me from feeling like I could play this role when it’s precisely that prejudice that I’ve received. > Doesn’t matter that it’s from African-American women more than anyone else, doesn’t matter. I received prejudice. Anyone who’s received oppression and prejudice feels this character. Getting emotional, the British actress added that she “wanted to apologise every day to darker-skinned actresses”. She said: > To say, ‘I’m sorry that I’m the one chosen. My mama looks like you. My mom looks like you. > It’s been very painful to have women look like my mom feel like I’m not representing them. That I’m taking from them. Taking their men, taking their work, taking their truth. I didn’t mean to.
