Gil Scott-Heron

I'm with William Blum on this. "Gil Scott-Heron, now a ripe old 60, wa interviewed by the Washington Post...WP: What do you think now? Did we have a revolution? GS-H: Yes, the election of President Obama was the revolution.Oh? So that's it? That's what we took clubs over our heads for... tear gas, jail cells, and permanent police and FBI files... published a million issues of the underground press? To get a president who doesn't have a revolutionary bone in his body? Not a muscle or nerve or tissue or ogan that seriously questions cherished establishment beliefs concerning terrorism, permanent war, Israel, torture, marijuana, healthcare, and the primacy of profit over the environment and all else?..." -pgs 318, 319 of "America's Deadliest Export: Democracy"

Different from any version of this that I've heard before, where he was using the vocal style that Michael Franti used on "Television, The Drug of the Nation" by Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy back in 1992.

This brother had a keen understanding of media and hegemony. His poetry is still relevant, still prescient, still right on. The revolution will not be texted, will not be tweeted, will not be televised, will not be televised. The revolution will be live.
