More From Lauren Potter

Latino actors and actresses have had to struggle for decades, but when i came around with real women have curves, attitudes were starting to change. we screened the film all over the world - in jewish communities, black communities, greek communities, german communities - and people across the board said, "that's my family."
Attitude Real Struggle
Part of the problem with the word 'disabilities' is that it immediately suggests an inability to see or hear or walk or do other things that many of us take for granted. but what of people who can't feel? or talk about their feelings? or manage their feelings in constructive ways? what of people who aren't able to form close and strong relationships? and people who cannot find fulfillment in their lives, or those who have lost hope, who live in disappointment and bitterness and find in life no joy, no love? these, it seems to me, are the real disabilities.
Relationship Strong Disappointment
If we're united, i wouldn't care about a white school board getting me a little something. the hell with the school board; that's the white supremacy board and the white supremacy board wants you reading stupid books rooted in the idea of white supremacy. i don't want a thing to do with white supremacy.
Stupid Book Reading
Migration is an opportunity, not a problem. and in the sense that it is an opportunity, it goes on to a bilateral agreement, between mexico and the us, the us and the dominican republic, whatever you wish, and it has to be a multilateral, international event. i am in favor of an international union of migrant workers that really takes on the problems that affect europe, with the migrants coming from africa, and the us with the migrants coming from latin america. it has to be considered an international question, with international solutions, and with no problems national or international.
Latin Opportunity Wish
Human beings need community. if there are no communities available for constructive ends, there will be destructive, murderous communities... only the social sector, that is, the nongovernmental, nonprofit organization, can create what we now need, communities for citizens... what the dawning 21st century needs above all is equally explosive growth of the nonprofit social sector in building communities in the newly dominant social environment, the city.
Cities Organization Community
A lot of society tries to put people with disabilities into one cube, and when you think about it, many, many people have different types of disabilities, and you cannot put a code that applies towards everyone - generally, they can be guidelines, but in the long run, interior designers and architects need more education on the subject. that's what's missing.

Eradicate poverty. this is all that matters in my country. when i am out training i think about this a lot; when i am running it is going over in my mind. as a country we cannot move forward until we eradicate poverty.
Running Country Moving
It is obviously easier, for the short run, to draw cheap labor from adjacent pools of poverty...than to find it among one's own people. and to the millions of such prospective immigrants from poverty to prosperity, there is, rightly or wrongly, no place that looks more attractive than the united states. given its head, and subject to no restrictions, this pressure will find its termination only when the levels of overpopulation and poverty in the united states are equal to those of the countries from which these people are now so anxious to escape.

Buddhism teaches us not to try to run away from suffering. you have to confront suffering. you have to look deeply into the nature of suffering in order to recognize its cause, the making of the suffering.

You can't embrace your whole life if you're shut down. i found out that i can't just run away and shut down. i'm losing the rest of my life doing that.
