A Concrete Poem (New Slaves) | Cast Bronze 2017

 

Sometimes I think about the ways in which debt has become the new form of segregation in our society. I am worried about the ways that specific portions of the population seem to be funneled through various systems of debt accumulation - be they legal or financial - in a way that assures their position in the world. Sometimes I think about my history, and how lucky and unlucky I am to have been born the way that I was. I try my best to relate it all to Kanye and destiny.
