I think people are more than their heritage or their skin colour or their name or how they grew up.

Sam Esmail

The colour of my skin determines what opportunities I have; the colour of my skin says there's only room for one or two of us to be accepted in a certain job; the colour of my skin has dictated everything I've done in my whole life.

Kadeena Cox

The football field was a place where I could express myself and just be me. Play the game as well as you can and that's what you're judged on. Not the colour of your skin, or your beliefs, or the conversation you have around racism.

Adam Goodes

Growing up in a system that tells you just because of your skin colour you are not good enough - you learn at a very young age to toughen up.

Motsi Mabuse

I sometimes wish taste wasn't ever an issue, and the sounds of instruments or synths could be judged solely on their colour and timbre. Judged by what it did to your ears, rather than what its historical use reminds you of.

Jonny Greenwood

I got kicked out of four high schools just because people took issue with the colour of my skin. As if I could help the colour I was born.

Tionne Watkins

I don't think discovery of a new planet has a huge meaning for children now, but what it means is the world they're growing up in is very different from children of previous generations. We had Star Trek, Star Wars and Futurama - and we still do - but for children today, they will grow up in a world where other stars were known.

Sara Seager

I think a person of colour in any situation should be qualified to do the job. Not just because of the colour of their skin.

Motsi Mabuse

When I was growing up in the Forties and Fifties, you could hide your children from the difficulties of life, but today you can't separate children's contact with the adult world today.

Michael Morpurgo

Never think negatively, for the negative thinker does a very dangerous thing. He pumps out negative thoughts into the world around him and thus activates the world negatively.

Norman Vincent Peale

I would wish we would get to a place of colour-blind casting, where it didn't matter what colour skin you are, where you came from, anybody could play anybody and we didn't judge it.

Mena Massoud

We have a black President in the United States. I think the world has matured. It's no longer about colour, but the person in the skin.

Marlon Wayans

Most liberal-minded folk would like to think that since they are not hostile to people of a different race, racism is a disease of the uneducated, unenlightened and socially backward - football hooligans, British National Party supporters, policemen. You could call this the Bad Guy Theory. But the Bad Guy Theory does not explain why Indian-heritage children do nearly twice as well as Pakistani-heritage children at GCSE.

Trevor Phillips

I didn't want to be a 16-year-old kid being beaten up by a bunch of people who didn't like me 'cause of the colour of my skin.

Lenny Henry

It's high time the film industry stopped treating fair skin as a parameter of beauty. You could be the fairest of them all, but if you have a wicked soul, you aren't beautiful at all. So, skin colour doesn't define a person's beauty.

Tamannaah

When my father articulated his vision for the future, he expressed his wish that one day his children would be judged not by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. This dream was not just about me and my siblings, but about our children and their children.

Martin Luther King III
