John Amos at a school district meeting in May 2016
Actor John Amos is known around the world as a legendary performer, from his stint on Good Times through Roots and other notable moments on stage and screen.

But more recently he has become a regular at school district meetings and events, often observing how the district functions. A longtime friend of School Board Member Johanna Wright, Amos most recently attend several school board meetings dealing with the recent racial issues.

But at last night's Town Hall on racial and bias issues, Amos spoke up, urging the district to organize trips to the African-American History Museum in Washington, D.C.
