    I love the Hunger Games and also the Divergent series and I've watched tonnes of interviews with all cast members of both. It's so nice to see the interviews of Amandla and Willow as children. They seem so innocent. But, as happens most often than not, things change. From what I can see the interviews with Willow as a young adult now, she still seems like a beautiful, shy young lady. Unfortunately, though, what I see in this interview with Amandla is someone who has been moulded and is typical of a child actress now an adult. It's so unfortunate and sad, but is the way of Hollywood more often than not. Amandla seemed so nice as a kid, but you can tell from this interview she's been hardened by Hollywood life and now talks like she's continually reading from a script and predictably about politics and equality. Such a shame kids get moulded this way in this industry... Hopefully at her core, she is still a happy, care-free person.

      Thanks for the information ... well her name means Power in Zulu(SA language) and has so much meaning due to its use in resistance movements. I guess now it's all thanks to globalization

    Funny enough, when I hear my fellow black folk fighting this fight, I cant help but be cynical and conclude that they are just after that bread....and not so on about the representation bit. That said, Amandla is a beauty, hope her acting is as good.

    If you represent 13% of the population. And you are asking for better representation.... You are asking for preferential treatment not better representation

      you have a valid point but i feel like people should be allowed to request art that speaks more to them. it kinda sucks growing up never seeing someone who looks like you (without them being a caricatural stereotype). i don’t see why people get upset when they see minorities on screen. isn’t variety interesting and valued in pop culture? or would it be better to watch the same recycled stories over and over?
