| Mackey wants to "acknowledge the complexity of black culture," in particular, what he calls "its variousness and its several-sidedness" ("Interview," Foster 59). We can sit still, keep silent, let the phoebe, the sycamore, the river, the stone call themselves by whatever they call themselves, their own sounds, their own silences; and thus may know for a moment the nearness of the world, its vastness, its vast variousness, far and near, which only silence knows. Where MacConnel tries to fix a culture in its past and Nagy tries to market one (or several), Perrone talks of the welcome variousness of the world, and also about the impossibility of approaching that variety from any other ground but the one on which you already stand. |
