Taraji P.

Henson broke down in tears during an appearance on Gayle King's Sirius XM radio show while speaking about pay disparity for Black actresses in Hollywood.

King's question comes following Henson sharing similar sentiments with The Hollywood Reporter for a recent cover story.

She told THR, "Listen, I've been doing this for two decades and sometimes I get tired of fighting because I know what I do is bigger than me.

I know that the legacy I leave will affect somebody coming up behind me ... I've tried twice to walk away [from the business].

But I can't, because if I do, how does that help the ones coming up behind me?"
