is inseparable from Black culture.
Take away Black culture, you get no jazz, you get no hip hop, you get no blues, you get no country, you get no rock and roll.
Half the foods that people enjoy, no French fries, French fries made by Thomas Jefferson's enslaved son.
You talk about the food that we enjoy, no Taco Tuesdays without the Mexicans, sorry, no Chinese food, which is not what they eat in China.
If you go to Chinatown, what they serve and you in the front, that is an American version of Chinese food.
What they really eat is totally different.
You don't get that.
No more Chinese food in the little box.
No more that little fried chicken that they make at the Chinese joint.
You want American culture, the bodega, which is such a mix of people who are from Yemen, all those Yemeni bodegas on the corner.
That's America.
America is a mix of the Norwegian culture of Minnesota plus the Haitian culture of New Orleans.
It's the Jewish amalgam with Black folk to make jazz in the 30s.
American culture is a mix.
And if you take away just the Black culture,
Take African-Americans off the table.
There's no America.
We're a sad, pathetic, mini baby Europe.
And Europe ain't that spicy and ain't that flavorful, which is why the Europeans come over here.
If European culture was so hot, they'd stay over there.
