I was fortunate enough to have been raised to a certain point before I got into the race thing. I had other views of what a human is, so I was never able to see racism as the big question. Racism was horrendous, but there were other aspects to life.

I don't very often read novels.

I never had an occasion to question color, therefore, I only saw myself as what I was... a human being.

Jackie Robinson is a true legend.

Child psychologists have demonstrated that our minds are actually constructed by these thousands of tiny interactions during the first few years of life. We aren't just what we're taught. It's what we experience during those early years - a smile here, a jarring sound there - that creates the pathways and connections of the brain. We put our kids to fifteen years of quick-cut advertising, passive television watching, and sadistic video games, and we expect to see emerge a new generation of calm, compassionate, and engaged human beings?

We're all imperfect, and life is simply a perpetual, unending struggle against those imperfections.

I had chosen to use my work as a reflection of my values.
