What I Don't Write Is As Important

The African-american Is Often Used, And Has Conspired With The Rest Of America To Be Used, As A Diversion From America's Problems. I Wish African-americans Would Stop Contributing To This Sideshow. I Also Wish All African-americans Would Cease To Sing And Dance Just For A Generation. I Think We Provide Too Much Entertainment.

So Much History, If You Or I Were To Write It, Could Seem A Fiction. These Separations, These Lines That Tell Us This Is Fiction Or Non-fiction, That This Is History Or This Is A Novel, Are Often Useless.

Often The Lines That Define The Traditional European Arrangement Of Fiction, Non-fiction, History, Etc. Are Not Useful. These Lines Can Distort The World We, People Who Look Like Me, Live In - And By The World, I Mean Our Personal Experience Of It.

I Didn't Really Understand Racism Because I Grew Up In An All-black Society, So I Didn't See How It Was Possible Not To Like Me!

I Write Out Of Defiance.
