Comedian Sinbad suffered an ischemic stroke as a result of a blood clot that traveled from his heart to his brain. On July 7, 2021, nearly nine months after the initial stroke, Sinbad finally came home. He continues to receive therapy, fighting for every inch. His progress is nothing short of remarkable. Limbs that were said to be “dead” are coming alive and he’s taking the steps necessary to learn to walk again. In his own words, "I am not done. I will not stop fighting until I can walk across the stage again.” And neither will we.
Survival odds from this type of event are approximately 30%. Sinbad has already beaten the odds and has made significant progress beyond what anyone expected, but there are still miles to go. Two years have passed since the initial event. The costs of therapy far exceed what insurance covers and it has taken its toll on the family financially. Many of you have asked what you can do to support us. We created this site as an avenue for those who would like to lend their support and contribute in some way. All gifts will go to the Adkins Trust to help provide for Sinbad’s care and help him continue to fight this battle.
Please help this amazing comedic genius anyway you can. Thank You! #TheActorsChoice. Link: https://www.thejourneyforward.life
The Actor's Choice Recommendation of the Week.
How did one decade change American cinema - and culture - forever? Elvis Mitchell explores the history of Black representation and the cultural impact of witnessing unapologetic Blackness. #IsThatBlackEnoughForYou IS THAT BLACK ENOUGH FOR YOU?!? is only on Netflix, November 11th.
From celebrated writer and film historian Elvis Mitchell, IS THAT BLACK ENOUGH FOR YOU?!? is both a documentary and deeply personal essay. The film examines the craft and power of cinema from a perspective often overlooked: the African American contribution to films released from the landmark era of the 70s. It is a deep dive into the impact that point of view had on movies, as well as popular culture, and serves as a love letter to film, posing questions that have never been asked, let alone answered. Crucial artistic voices, including director Charles Burnett, Samuel L. Jackson, Whoopi Goldberg, Laurence Fishburne, Zendaya and others, offer their distinctive prism on the creators and films that dazzled and inspired. The film provides insight into the history of Black representation going back to the earliest days of cinema, and the cultural impact of witnessing unapologetic Blackness. Produced by Steven Soderbergh, David Fincher, Angus Wall and Ciara Lacy, IS THAT BLACK ENOUGH FOR YOU?!? marks Mitchell’s directorial debut.
The greats who have left us in 2022...Actor Austin Stoker, best known for Assault on Precint 13 and Battle for the Planet of the Apes, starred as Lt. Uhura on Star Trek, actress Nichelle Nichols, basketball legend Bill Russell and actor Roger E. Mosley. May they rest in eternal heavenly peace!
