Africa Has Been Troubled For A Long

I Just Came From South Africa, A Place That Had Been In A Perpetual Uprising Since 1653, So The Uprising Had Become A Way Of Life In Our Culture And We Grew Up With Rallies And Strikes And Marches And Boycotts.

I've Got To Where I Am In Life Not Because Of Something I Brought To The World But Through Something I Found - The Wealth Of African Culture.

I Think That Anybody From The 20th Century, Up To Now, Has To Be Aware That If It Wasn't For Louis Armstrong, We'd All Be Wearing Powdered Wigs. I Think That Louis Armstrong Loosened The World, Helped People To Be Able To Say "yeah," And To Walk With A Little Dip In Their Hip. Before Louis Armstrong, The World Was Definitely Square, Just Like Christopher Columbus Thought.

I Always Make The Joke That I Go Home, To One Of My Homes, To Go And Do Laundry So I Can Go On The Road Again.

I Think It Is Incumbent On All Human Beings To Oppose Injustice In Every Form.
