Black History Month
For Black History Month, I am spotlighting the poet Derek Walcott. Below, Walcott reads his poem "Sea Grapes".
Seeing things in unhabitual ways.
"They knew, for their own good reasons, what the world was like, and their experience acted as a filter through which any new message was tested, confirmed, rejected, challenged, and reinterpreted. Changing their minds would have meant changing the world they experienced, not simply convincing them of a new set of ideals around equality of opportunity and the desirability of a different world." - Kessler, Ashenden, Connell and Dowsett (1985)
