"Whatever the hell you need to do" is how to sustain a career as a director, according to Barry Jenkins.

"I worked at Banana Republic for three and a half years while I had a deal at Focus Features and an agent at CAA," the Oscar-winning 'Moonlight' director and co-writer told fellow director Anu Valia ('We Strangers').

@mlmluver We had fun in the Writers Room debating what this relationship would look like on screen. @KendallKyndall

[DEONTÉ STAATS @checkmySTAATS]

Snowed in? Warm up with 16 episodes of @ALaCarteALLBLK
I was the Head Writer Season 2 and things got Heated...not Rivalry. #Fbf #Writer

[DEONTÉ STAATS @checkmySTAATS]

@bronzeavery I was the Head Writer on a show called @ALaCarteALLBLK that had great Black queer storylines. We were canceled in 2023 after 16 episodes. Proud but we need more.

@HamptonByHilton is this your King (Aidan) parked in the Diamond member spot while he uses the gym?

[DEONTÉ STAATS @checkmySTAATS]

#StoryTime: I was asked do I celebrate #GayPride and my reply was I'm a Black man first so I usually face racial discrimination before we get to me being Queer. @HamptonByHilton in Willow Grove, Pennsyltucky said "Hold my beer" Pt 1

[DEONTÉ STAATS @checkmySTAATS]

@HamptonByHilton Pt. 2 Aidan the Terrible at the front desk refused to rent a room to my husband and I and said the
@HamptonByHilton
inn was full. Low and behold we found one on @Expedia and booked under my husbands name. #GayPride

[DEONTÉ STAATS @checkmySTAATS]

Pt. 13 And this all started bc Aidan at the @HamptonByHilton in Willow Grove, PA fucked w/the wrong one. I don't play about my husband and my family. Not during #GayPride2024 or any month. Just ask [REDACTED]. Nah that's a discrimination story for another time.

[DEONTÉ STAATS @checkmySTAATS]

Pt. 12 So here we are a whole me flying my Queer flag for the first time this freely all in the name of discrimination. But my Momma raised a punk but not a coward. @HamptonByHilton hopes I don't point out #GayPride many of us stay at their properties. Or not this yr!

[DEONTÉ STAATS @checkmySTAATS]

Pt. 11 In our 20 minute convo @HamptonByHilton Lisa never says I'm sorry that happened to you. So I'm hearing this "dogwhistle" that #LGBTQ discrimination isn't a concern for your company. And during #GayPride.

[DEONTÉ STAATS @checkmySTAATS]

Pt. 10 Today on the first Tuesday of #GayPride I called @HamptonByHilton customer line and got Lisa who seemed more concerned with teaching me company policy and why my case hadn't been escalated. But she would fix it and it would take 72 more hrs.
