the african proverb. >> west african proverbs. >> one of the things i wanted to do before switching overo q and a, this question is difficult, of where does hip-hop fit in where we think of a canon of african-american literature. you already know this, i like to think because i have always positioned hip-hop as a black artform with heavy roots in the caribbean. you can't deny that but i am wondering, does this question actually even serve us, to constantly want to find out where hip-hop fits into literary tradition of african-american literature or is this something that needs to be archived and thought of and stand in its own space. >> for me my life's work is so far, the interface between african-american literature and rap music. i believe in the continuity and consistency of things, i believe the artists of hip-hop culture come out of a black expressive tradition. it is interesting to look at a certain point, my favorite rappers, a brother who spent time in brooklyn, when you listen to his music, you see hip-hop is a reverse effect, where he is collecting a lot of different experienc

the book of proverbs talks about laughter being good for the soul i grew up, anybody who who knew my father and his brother wade, and then there brother lois, it was quite a treat to get those three under the same roof at the same time. not only did they do a good job of creating laughter and our hometowns and in our lives, but also other people that they touched. as i said earlier, i didn't write the book as a political book, but when you look in the political arena today it seems like the nation, we are are angry. we are mad about everything and we don't watch current affair shows today looking for the truth, we watch those shows to have our opinions affirmed or have our biases confirmed. i don't watch many current affair shows. it's like watching soap operas, you can be gone for six months and come back and nothing has changed. i do think laughter is extremely important. i mention a guy in the book, faye odell. he was a legendary high school football coach and all marine. he and i crossed paths, he was from oklahoma but we would cross paths occasionally on the fellowship of christ

i mentioned this proverb. if you want to go quickly you can go alone,alone, but if you want to go far you go together. >> and that is what i think. i encourage our viewers to read the book because it is not only a great story of technology in the future but a great story of perseverance because -- again, as a friend, i was happy sure that part of your life and did not get right to public policy. >> the story of coming to the company and having failures including a partnership with apple. >> the tour of the contract. had to rename it america online. it was a crisis that turned out to be an opportunity. >> and that is the end of the story. then there is really kind of -- you and george ten years of setbacks, pioneering new markets for struggling to raise an ounce of capital that in today's terms of rounding errors, in terms of what you read about in terms of deals getting done, and a certain metal was created in doing that. the book is aa great lesson in leadership and perseverance because it is not always easy.

[laughter] >> so, you know -- >> an african proverb. >> yes, we'll call it a new african proverb.
