More From Henri Rousseau

It's the culture, not the blood. if you can go anywhere in the world and adopt these babies and put them into households that were already assimilated in america, those babies will grow up as american as any other baby with as much patriotism and love of country as any other baby. it's not about race. it's never been about race. in fact the struggles across this planet, we describe them as race, they're not race. they're culture based. it's a clash of culture, not the race. sometimes that race is used as an identifier.
Country Baby Growing Up
No matter how old i get, the race remains one of life's most rewarding experiences. my times become slower and slower, but the experience of the race is unchanged: each race a drama, each race a challenge, each race stretching me in one way or another, and each race telling me more about myself and others.

You have to take in the whole picture, and ask, "what is it you want? what kind of world do you want?" so, i have drawings of different cities. those cities have an end goal; they're not just cities. the end goal of those cities is to make things relevant to people that they respond to. there's no other way.
Cities Drawing Goal
In trading with each other cities can't be in too different stages of development, and they can't copy one another. backward cities, or younger cities, or newly forming cities in supply regions, have to develop to a great extent on one another's shoulders. this is one of the terrible things about empires. empires want them only to trade with the empire, which doesn't help them at all. it's just a way of exploiting them.
Cities Want Empires
The way our big cities change sucks. the beauty of cities was that they were edgy, sometimes even a little dangerous. artists, poets, and activists could come and unify and create different kinds of scenes. not just fashion scenes, scenes that were politically active. big cities are getting so high-end oriented, business corporate fashion, fashion not in an artistic sense but in a corporate sense. for me that edgy beauty of cities is lost, wherever you go.
Fashion Artist Cities
Individuals who have been wronged by unlawful racial discrimination should be made whole; but under our constitution there can be no such thing as either a creditor or a debtor race. that concept is alien to the constitution's focus upon the individual. ...to pursue the concept of racial entitlement - even for the most admirable and benign of purposes - is to reinforce and preserve for future mischief the way of thinking that produced race slavery, race privilege and race hatred. in the eyes of government, we are just one race here. it is american.

All you have to do is wait,” i explained. “sit tight and wait for the right moment. not try to change anything by force, just watch the drift of things. make an effort to cast a fair eye on everything. if you do that, you just naturally know what to do. but everyone’s always too busy. they’re too talented, their schedules are too full. they’re too interested in themselves to think about what’s fair.

The bartenders are the regular band of jack, and the heavenly drummer who looks up to the sky with blue eyes, with a beard, is wailing beer-caps of bottles and jamming on the cash register and everything is going to the beat - it's the beat generation, its béat, it's the beat to keep, it's the beat of the heart, it's being beat and down in the world and like oldtime lowdown.
Heart Eye Beer
With me poetry has been not a purpose, but a passion; and the passions should be held in reverence: they must not they cannot at will be excited, with an eye to the paltry compensations, or the more paltry commendations, of mankind.
Passion Eye Purpose
Watching television is like taking black spray paint to your third eye.
