And having grown up in a segregated city, Baltimore, Maryland, I sort of use that idea to go around America with a tape recorder -- thank God for technology -- to interview people, thinking that if I walked in their words -- which is also why I don't wear shoes when I perform -- if I walked in their words, that I could sort of absorb America.
Budući da sam odrasla u segragiranom gradu Baltimoru, u Marylandu, u biti sam koristila tu ideju dok sam išla po Americi s kazetofonom - hvala Bogu na tehnologiji – intervjuirajući ljude, s mišlju da ako hodam u njihovim riječima - što je ujedno i razlog zašto ne nosim cipele dok nastupam – da ako hodam u njihovim riječima, mogu na neki način upiti Ameriku.
