write up on local hero... Blelvis

Elvis was a hero to most
But he never meant shit to me you see
Straight up racist that sucker was
Simple and plain
Mother fuck him and John Wayne
Cause I'm Black and I'm proud

-Public Enemy
Fight the Power

I do not know if either John Wayne or Elvis Presley were in fact racist
those are just poetic words from what appeared to be an angry man

an article in the
washington post on blelvis there is still a fantastic documentary potential there I have spoken with a friend who would arrange a gig if he wanted to be the front man for a night
