(Afro) American Gothic
Playing hooky from work for K's birthday....
The scene: Pepper's Pizza, Chapel Hill. Killing time before the start of F 9/11 matinee next door at the Varsity (it was funny and maddening and brilliant BTW). Waiting at the counter for our slices. Perusing the motley yet amusing collection of hipster band/smartass political stickers visible on the back of one of the refrigerators.
C [reading]: "Goth: The Other White Meat".
K: Do you think there are black goths? Do they wear whiteface?
C: Now that would be a great documentary! [Pause] We could call it Bleak Like Me.
