Loading Laverne Cox data from Instagram. Please wait... @lavernecox : It feels poetic that Miss Cicely Tyson is on one of the covers of @time magazine's issue on Optimism guest edited by @ava. I wrote a piece for the issue about #MarianAnderson and #LeontynePrice, 2 black artists who made history and whose stories and artistic genius provide endless optimism and hope for me and changed a nation. Miss Tyson is in the same category. Miss Tyson is 94 years young. Leontyne Price turns 92 on Sunday.
