Here's a 2010 Ta-Nehisi Coates critique of Thomas Chatterton Williams' work.

https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2010/06/the-problem-with-being-black/58221/

Thomas Chatterton Williams posted:

Because the terrible truth is that black America has never—not even during the Harlem Renaissance—produced a whole class of mature cultural elites working and consuming at the very highest standards.

whereas white America has produced its William Faulkners, Frank Lloyd Wrights, Ralph Waldo Emersons, Harvard Universities, Edmund Wilsons, New Yorkers, etc., to serve as hefty counterbalances to the Lindsay Lohans, Donald Trumps, and John D. Rockefellers it creates—i.e., there is a small but healthy highbrow tradition set in place—black America is all too skewed in the direction of P Diddy and the vulgar...

Don't even get him started on Nicki Minaj. And don't fail to note that White Culture is full of mature elites of the highest standards. White Culture would never allow a boor like Donald Trump to tear down its splendid majesty by electing him president 6 years later.

and in response

Ta-Nehisi Coates posted:

More than anything else we have to be talking about vision here. Williams cannot not know that Toni Morrison is a great novelist, in the tradition of Faulkner, in the tradition of John Edgar Wideman. He cannot not know that Yusef Komunyakaa is one of the greatest poets America has produced. He cannot not know that August Wilson may be America's greatest playwright.

TCW seems to have a conclusion in mind, and then he'll just cherry pick, ignore, or give tortured interpretations of data to lead the reader along.

tried mezcal one time and it it tasted like a campfire...finished the bottle though

Mezcal is a loving great base for cocktails if done correctly. It's this nice middle ground between whiskey and tequila that pairs really well with heat. If I'm at a bar and it's got mezcal and something spicy that's my pick.

Good soup!

trick is to sip it slow and not just shoot it

good mezcal has a super rad flavor profile and it tastes sweet and smoky and somehow of the desert and volcanic stone the agave hearts are cooked in

its also good in a seafood marinade, like w/shrimps or in ceviche

gives a lot of smoke and sweetneess

gonna make some marlin ceviche some time this week methinks

I was drinking it straight, I'll keep an eye out for some spice man cocktails and maybe try again one day. I don't really have the patience for making cocktails at home.
