Actor, producer and director Idris Elba visits Google to discuss
the creative influence that Africa and its diaspora has across the
tech, entertainment and business worlds.
The only child of African immigrants to the UK, Idris Elba is one

leading man. In 2002, he rose to fame playing the role of Stringer

and cultural ubiquity, as an actor, director, producer, musician,
fashion designer, philanthropist, dare-devil, podcaster, and
heart-throb.
