Quotes [on growing up in Jamaica Plain, Boston] One of the great things about growing up there was that it's so ethnically diverse, you didn't really pay attention to race. My dad is part Choctaw, Chickosaw and African American. I didn't realize the significance of not being white until I moved to LA.
