Red figure vase painting of Zeus pursuing Ganymede. Zeus is depicted as a mature, bearded man with a wreath in his hair and a himation draped over one shoulder. He holds his thunderbolt in his left and his sceptre in his right. Ganymede is turning back to look at Zeus, a large hoop in his right, his left hand raised. He is depicted as a young man with shoulder-length hair and a fillet. Both are nude.

What had saved Charles Dutton was prison.
He dropped out of school at 12 and pleaded guilty to manslaughter at 17, after stabbing a black man who had pulled a knife on him in a fight.
He served two years.
Then he was sent back for weapons possession, fought with a white guard, and ended up serving another seven and a half.
The tale of his redemption is well known.
He grabbed an anthology of plays by black playwrights on his way into solitary confinement one day…

By chance I've just discovered my 2021 keynote at the GNDCon 2.0 (not as usual at the German National Library in Frankfurt, but online due to COVID19) entitled "Die Welt ist klein und man trifft sich immer zweimal..." (It's a small world and you always meet twice...)

I'm unreasonably pleased that this, the Least Desirable Book Of All, bas been sitting in the little free library near me for months now.
Nobody will touch it. Something deep in our lizard brains knows to reject this book. A totem of disdain.
