Interview with The Scotsman

Seriously Kamau?

I did an interview with The Scotsman’s Chitra Ramaswamy. It is one of the most fun interviews I’ve had in a long time. And it features one of my favorite quotes I’ve ever said.

“I think there is an element of racism in even listening to the Tea Party – it’s like ‘these white people are upset! We’d better hear what they have to say!’ Meanwhile the Black Panthers had to get guns to be heard.”

I think I like this interview so much because she took everything I said and then re-calibrated it make it more British-y, which makes me sound more intelligent to me… because I’m a self-hating American.
