As a racist review-bombing campaign targets 'The Rings of Power,' star Ismael Cruz Córdova reflects on the impact the series has for Black and Latino fans.

He continued,"Looking for zero favors but to live with the same chances to dream and thrive as anyone else. If you've ever felt discarded, marginalized, silenced — you are my people. And this moment is yours too!

"This billboard was blocks away from a hostel I once had to stay for a while in a room with bunk beds with many other people who were struggling with housing and money. We all had a beating heart and hopes of a better future." Córdova then ended by expressing his gratitude for being able to share this moment with his parents, who are pictured with him above."My heart was burning with an unshakable goal: To get to where we were told we couldn't be. Here we are. To share it with the two halves of my DNA was absolutely surreal. My heart is full, of love, of them, and all of you who share this same fire.
