Portrait by Del Bey
Pianist, composer, artist. What do you think of the Civil Rights Movement Today? "I think it´s weak. We have these neat salon type of affairs on community TV. It´s done in a esoteric kind of way... It seems somewhat self-serving... There are some other ´black leaders´ that have community meetings on the north side...But, we talk among ourselves. We have run smack dab out into the total fabric. We can´t be hoarding amongst each other, and patting each other on the back... masturbating each other with our problems and our needs to see who can say it the best, the most articulate. When in fact there needs to be A-C-T-I-O-N ongoing. I don´t mean do some action and then we are not heard from for the next six months. There needs to be a continuity of service that happens to really make the resounding civil rights issues known and understood." |
