Great to watch and read your recent dispatches. The questions you raise in your cryptic writings are questions we should stop, look, listen and attempt to answer; the "we" being us the uncategorized AFricans in America, who are slowly but surely becoming a force. Is the new paiting a sign of new direction? Really like it. Keep the music playing. Cheers, Mohammed
