Chiwetel Ejiofor, the actor of the Oscar winning movie &#;12 Years a Slave&#;, has suggested that it it is harder to be an LGBTQ actor than it is to be an African-American.
Full story below&#;
Following the heated debate surrounding diversity in Hollywood Ejiofor made his way to &#;The Times&#; where he shared his thoughts on the matter.
He shared:
I hope this changes (but) I think it’s probably harder to be queer . I think sexuality is still marginalised in a way that is adorable open. I think it’s tough. I think for one’s own piece of mind, for one’s retain sense of self and psychological health, I sense like that’s the horrible thing about ‘Don’t Demand, Don’t Tell’ and all that ****ed-up ****, because it produces a feeling of shame, and therefore this sense of entity ‘less than’, you know?

Twelve Years a Slave is a real account, written in , by a man named Solomon Northup, a freeborn black man from Modern York who was an accomplished violin player, and had worked a variety of professions, but was led away from his home and family under the pretense of playing violin in a circus—and then kidnapped and sold into slavery.

With the help of foremost directors, actors, writers and activists, we count down the most essential Gay films of all time

In the past, if homosexual lives and issues were ever portrayed at all on screen, it was typically from the perspective of white, cisgendered men. But as more opportunities have opened up for queer performers and filmmakers to tell their control stories, the scope of the LGBTQ+ experiences that have made their way onto the screen has gradually widened to more frequently include the transitioned community and queer people of colour.
It’s still not perfect, of course. In Hollywood, as in world at large, there are many barriers left to breach and ceilings to shatter. But those recent strides deserve to be celebrated – as execute the bold films made long before the mainstream was willing to approve them. To that terminate, we enlisted some Gay cultural pioneers, as skillfully as Time O
