It do give a brother, pause. That a young man like P was at that time, in
that space, being that tourist that was trying too hard not to be one, that
was all about what a white negro from the other side of kansas might
experience, like mary and jan at the negro diner with red pamphlets in they
pockets looking for they humanity on the other side of the tracks while the
big houses, white houses, not prison houses. they called homes, where a
black man, a rat fiercly biting the cuff of pants, battered and beaten by
the men who own the buildings and the signs that read, You Can't Win, kill.
Where the stone is endlessly pushed in the underworld by a thug/genius. Wher
Socratres raises his hand and poits to heaven. Where Mersault finds meaning.
Where Bigger finds Purpose. Where apology is defense. Where a journey into
the mind of watts, again, this time a multi-ethnic "riot", has a small rain,
a gravity's rainbow, and a secret share in integrations revisited.
