Spoken word artist Kelly Zen-Yie Tsai tells me she just launched this cool new video, "Black White Whatever," directed by Jazzmen Lee-Johnson. It's good stuff, so spread the word.
It's a call out to our politicians to dig deeper past the black/white binary when discussing race in America. You know, because there are a lot of us out here who are neither black nor white... but we're sure as hell American. The message seems more relevant than ever as we quickly approach one of the most important elections in our lifetime.
I've linked Kelly's stuff before, about a year back, when she did this kickass video for "By-standing: The Begining of an American Lifetime," with director Karen Lin. To learn more about Kelly Zen-Yie Tsai and her work, visit her website here.
