What would you expect to find when the muzzle that has silenced the voices of black men is removed?
That they would chant your praises?
Did you think that when those heads that our fathers had forcibly bowed down to the ground were raised again, you would find adoration in their eyes?

Tu ești pentru mine relația necesară. Toți ceilalți sunt întâmplători.

Steden maken me bang. Maar waag je niet te ver buiten hun muren, want dan betreed je het domein van de Vegetatie. Over een afstand van vele kilometers is de Vegetatie opgerukt in de richting van de steden. Ze ligt op de loer. Als de stad dood is, neemt de vegetatie de macht over. Ze zal zich langs de muren omhoogslingeren en ze overwoekeren, ze zal in all hoeken en gaten doordringen en de stenen uit elkaar laten spatten; ze zal alle holen dichten en overal zullen groene vangarmen naar beneden hangen.
