TRANSITION

TRANSITION

I AM IN A TRANSITIONAL MODE

HAVE NO IDEA WHAT KIND OF WRITING WILL COME OUT OF ME?

AFTER LIVING HERE FOR SO LONG I AM JUST TRYING TO LEARN

WHAT THIS COUNTRY IS ALL ABOUT THROUGH THE EYES

AND EARS OF JAMES BADWIN,  ONE OF THE GREATES AMERICAN WEITER EVER...

HE SAYS, "PRESS IS PART OF THE SYSTEM."

"MOST OF THE SYSTEMS IN THE WORLD ARE IMMORAL"

THEY EMPOWER THE POWERFUL.

NOTHING MORE NEED TO BE ADDED.

POWERFUL CORRUPT,  COMMIT CRIMES, THEN DENY THEM,

AND THEN DEFEND THEIR CRIMES BY CREATING FICTIOUS STORIES ABOUT THEM.

AND THAT'S HOW IT GOES EVERYWHERE...

ARE YOU GOING TO WORRY ABOUT IT?

AND WHAT'S YOUR GAIN?

DO YOU HAVE POWER?

THEN FORGET IT...

DON'T TALK ABOUT IT

DON'T THINK ABOUT IT

DON'T READ ABOUT IT...

SAVE YOUR ENERGY

SAVE YOURSELF

GO TAKE A LONG WALK AND THINK OF THE POOR IN HE WORLD

THE POWERLESS IN THE WORLD

IT MIGHT ADD TO YOUR SENSE OF EMPATHY...
