The power of stories is, as @TaNehisiCoats said so well in #TheMessage, that they haunt you. Read these haunting words from fellow Canadian @acoyne (Andrew Coyne) & let them ruminate to places you didn’t know you had. Perhaps we will find ourselves seeds for a harvest to come #solarpunk

🧵 2/2
...to talk about rap more generally. I explained that hip hop had grown up after my adolescence, and so it had never been part of my youthful sound world. By and large it's a musical genre that I enjoy only in small doses, and I dislike much of the culture of conspicuous consumption and ultramasculinity that seems typical of a good deal of recent hip hop.
I did point out, though, that I don't have a blanket hatred of the genre, and that one track from almost half a century ago still struck me as both powerful social commentary and a cleverly written song:

My son had never heard of it. I wondered whether he would find it hokey, but in fact he told me he was impressed.
I'd love to tell you that this was the beginning of a long evening of father-son bonding, but when I put on NMIXX -- Know About Me, he found that he had important things to attend to in his room....

"#TaNehisiCoates, one of the most celebrated American political writers of our time, devotes much of his new book, #TheMessage, to a withering and deeply personal critique of #Israel’s oppression of #Palestinians. [..] Peter Beinart speaks with Coates about his time in Israel and the #WestBank, the silencing of Palestinians in #AmericanMedia, and what it means when nationalism’s victims become its adherents."

"He had also been told that the conflict was 'complicated,' its history tortuous and contested [..] He was astonished by the plain truth of what he saw: the walls, checkpoints, and guns that everywhere hemmed in the lives of #Palestinians [..] For Coates, the parallels with the Jim Crow South were obvious and immediate.."
