Quote by De philosopher DJ Kyos

“Me As a black person or child, Me as a Zulu person. Why you speak like being black or being a Zulu or certain tribe is a disability or bad thing? Why can't you deliver your facts or points or why don't you say what your product or business can do? Why you are looking down at yourself?”

“The first, second, and third thing we, humans of society, do when meeting others is always to perceive them based on their gender or sex, and also color. And we do so with the prejudicial package that we carry. It is as if that is all that matters to us, first and foremost, not the human.”

“I think of the added pressures that black men have when making love because they feel that they are expected to perform in some legendary way—Mandingo sex. What was that expression? Once go black, you can't go back.”

“Given our remote location, logistics were a nightmare. We were ambushed with new problems almost every hour. We did not have the budget  –  the luxury hotel rooms or great catering or frequent of- days –  to lubricate the bone- on- bone clashes that erupted with sickening regularity. Eventually, civilization broke down in the jungle. The savage spirit of the script spilled of the pages and came to haunt us on the sets. The white crew turned into the truculent jungle- lodge guests, unhappy with the service they were receiving. We became the irreverent staf, doing what we had to, but mocking them behind their backs. Somehow, we held it together and fnished flming. This time, unlike in Annie , there was a diference between how Pradip visualized the flm and how I imagined it. His approach, with the actors as well as the staging, was gentle, realistic, poker- faced. He softened the savagery and the occasional vulgarity of the script. I thought it ought to be enhanced, lifted half an inch of the foor. I wanted it to have a slightly surreal, merciless, metallic quality.”
