I think she did whatever she needed to do, but I think shes done fairly well.
She would consider herself an entrepreneur.
The primary conflict in the episode stems from Rubys disappointment in seeing A.V.
The two were best friends in their early years, but now there is little love between them.
For Toussaint, it was a joy to play opposite Lewis, whom she calls iconic.
It was so much fun, I cant tell you, says Toussaint.
She has held me responsible for their break up all these years later and she hates me.
Black-ishcreator Kenya Barris, whom Toussaint met for the first time, also impressed her.
Hes intense, she says.
Hes deeply attached to these characters and these storylines and is quite purposeful in the stories hes putting out.
He really does mean to bring about change.
I admire his courage.
Toussaints Thanksgiving episode will air Nov. 16, and a new episode ofBlack-ishairs tonight at 9:30 p.m.
