Louis Gossett Jr., the legendary star known for his iconic roles in “Roots” and “An Officer and a Gentleman,” has left an indelible mark on the world of entertainment. Born in Brooklyn, New York, on May 27, 1936, Gossett’s career spanned decades, earning him numerous accolades and making him a trailblazer for Black actors in Hollywood.

Throughout his illustrious career, Gossett faced challenges and obstacles, including racism in the industry.

Reflecting on the essence of existence, he remarked, “We dream about being big and famous and getting a lot of money, but the root is simple.” Emphasizing the duality of human nature, Gossett spoke about the daily choices individuals face between good and evil. “There are two choices we have to make every day: one is the devil, one is God. They’re both stronger than us. Be selfless and then you get on the right track. You’re good with God,” he shared.
