My introduction to acting was through theatre, so I actually saw a couple of Broadway shows that made me want to be an actor.
The advent of ebooks is no more going to kill the pleasure of reading than the introduction of the internal combustion engine made horses extinct.
Hebrew School was my first introduction to real feminism. I remember that much more than I remember any kind of actual religious teaching.
I have always hated slavery, I think, as much as any abolitionist. I have been an Old Line Whig. I have always hated it, but I have always been quiet about it until this new era of the introduction of the Nebraska Bill began.

Skateboarding was my introduction to rap and the first rap song that I really liked was KRS-One ‘Step Into A World.’
