Spike Lee is the writer and director known for films like Do The Right Thing, Bamboozled, and, most recently, Da Sweet Bloodof Jesus, an upcoming "romantic horror-comedy" he insists is not a remake of Blacula. Lee's work is known to engage with issues of race, class, and gentrification (recent comments he's made on the latter have aroused a certain degree of media ire), but a speaking engagement yesterday at the AOL offices found him discussing a topic that doesn't usually make it into his films: personal branding.
