“Come September,” is one of, if not THE greatest speeches I have ever heard. Arundhati Roy is my SHERO and I pray that I may someday be 1/1,000 of the human being that she is. If you have the time, I highly recommend that you watch this speech in its entirety, hear her words and read her literature. I truly cannot say enough about this woman. She has literally changed my life and the way I go about thinking in terms of oppression, Amerikan imperialsm, globalization and our ever changing world. It was in many ways, her words that spawned “The Literary Ca(n)non” Hip-Hop Project I recently completed with my brothers Akiyoshi & Kumar.

I am in awe of your brilliance Sister Roy. Please never stop writing, thinking, speaking out and destroying hatred. The God of Small Things, GOES.

With deep respect and love,

Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.
