Se reunieron en un volumen todas las entrevistas
dadas por el poeta y dramaturgo Federico García Lorca.
Lorca concedió 133 entrevistas; leyéndolas se sabrá
qué estaba por detrás de la poética del escritor andaluz.
Sobre su obra declaró en una de ellas: “No he sido nunca
poeta de minoría. He tratado de poner en mis poemas
lo de todos los tiempos, lo permanente, lo humano.
A mí me ataca lo humano, es el elemento fundamental en
toda obra de arte”. Y en otra dijo: “Hoy no interesa más
que una problemática: lo social. La obra que no siga esa
dirección está condenada al fracaso, aunque sea muy
buena”. En su última entrevista, de junio de 1936, Lorca
se muestra profético: “Ni el poeta ni nadie tiene la clave y
el secreto del mundo. Quiero ser bueno. Sé que la poesía
eleva y creo firmemente que si hay un más allá tendré la
agradable sorpresa de encontrarme con él. Pero el dolor
del hombre y la injusticia constante que mana del mundo,
y mi propio cuerpo y mi propio pensamiento, me evitan
trasladar mi casa a las estrellas”

We are now a nation obsessed with the cult of celebrity. Celebrities have replaced the classic notion of the hero. But instead of being respected for talent, courage or intelligence, it is money, style and image the deciding factors in what commands respect. Image is evrything. Their image is painstakingly constructed by a multitude of different image consultants to carve out the most profitable celebrity they can. Then society is right behind them, believing in evrything that celebrity believes in.
Companies know that people will buy a product if a celebrity has too. It is as if the person buying the product feels that they now have some kind of connection with the celebrity and that some of their perceived happiness will now be passed onto the consumer. So to look at it one way, the cult of celebrity is really nothing more than a sophisticated marketing scheme. Celeebrities though cannot be blamed for all negative aspects of society. In reality society is to blame. We are the people who seemed to have lost the ability to think for ourselves. I suppose it’s easier to be told what to think, rather than challenging what we are told. The reason we are swamped by celebrity is because there is a demand for it.

Amuleto

Lo único cierto es que llegué a México en 1965 y me planté en casa de León Felipe y en casa de Pedro Garfias y les dije aquí estoy para lo que gusten mandar. Y les debí de caer simpática, porque antipática no soy, aunque a veces soy pesada, pero antipática nunca. Y lo primero que hice fue coger una escoba y ponerme a barrer el suelo de sus casas y luego a limpiar las ventanas y cada vez que podía les pedía dinero y les hacia compra. Y ellos me decían con ese tono español tan peculiar, esa musiquilla distinta que no los abandonó nunca, como si encircularan las zetas y las ces y como si dejaran a las eses más huérfanas y libidinosas que nunca, Auxilio, me decian, deja ya de trasegar por el piso, Auxilio, deja esos papeles tranquilos, mujer, que el polvo siempre se ha avenido con la literatura.

The British (serves 60 million)

Take some Picts, Celts and Silures
Anda let them settle,
Then overrun them with Roman conquerors.
Remove the Romans after approximateky 400 years
Add lots of Normam French to some
Angle, Saxons, Jutes and Vikings, then stir vigorously.
[…]
Sprinkle some fresh Indians, Malaysians, Bosnians,
Iraqis and Bangladeshis together with some
Afghans, Spanish, Turkish, Kurdish, Japanese
And Palestinians
Then add to the melting pot.
Leave the ingredients to simmer.
As they mix and blend allow theis languages to flourish
Binding them together with English.
Allow time to be cool.
Add some ulity, understanding, and respect for the future,
Serve with justicee
And enjoy.

Note: All the ingredients are equally important. Treating one ingredient better than another will leave a bitter unpleasant taste.

Warning: An unequal spread of spread of justice will damage the people and cause pais. Give justice and quality to all.

Becoming

Back in the ancestral homeland of Michelle Obama,
black women were rarely granted the honorific Miss or
Mrs., but were addressed by their first name, or simply as
“gal” or “auntie” or worse. This so openly demeaned them
that many black women, long after they had left the South,
refused to answer if called by their first name. A mother
and father in 1970s Texas named their newborn “Miss” so
that white people would have no choice but to address their
daughter by that title. Black women were meant for the field
or the Kitchen, or for use as they saw fit. They were, by
definition, not ladies. The very idea of a black woman as
first lady of the land, well, that would have been unthinkable.
