Accept Certain Inalienable Truths.

Australia, To The Rest Of The World, Is Just Far Away, And Australia In The Thirties Was The Faraway Of The Faraway.

In 1977, Hip-hop Literally Wasn't Outside The Boroughs. But I Was Profoundly Aware Of The City Through Films Like Saturday Night Fever, The French Connection, And Network. I Had A Friend Who Visited New York, And I Asked Him What It Was Like. He Said, "oh, It's Great. Just Wear A Coat And Don't Look Anyone In The Eye."
