You’re now the new generation of
thinkers, liberalised and otherwise,
open to multi culturalism and yet
many years after MacPherson’s
decree the institutions are still
maintaining the same old rubbish.
All that’s happened is that the goal
posts have shifted, and underneath
the surface nothing authentic gets
funded. Black Britain is still not
funded like other groups and
communities. And the fact is that
Britain is never gonna take you
seriously until you take yourself
seriously. Britain is not gonna give
you nothing because you think
you deserve it. Britain is waiting
for something to burst. Britain is
very caught up in her own denial.
What remains for us to do is to
show each other that we can be
part of the beautiful. Like you and
your DRUM magazine, that’s all
I’m here to do.
