Randy Weston Quotes

"Our past as well as our future. It could have been completely destroyed when we were brought to the New World as slaves. They even took away our drums. And I don't want to talk about all those negative things going on. But its music is more present in our lives than ever. Blues, samba, calypso, reggae, jazz, salsa, Africa is everywhere."
Randy Weston

"Africa does not start south of the Sahara," 
"Dividing it into black and north Africa is kind of colonialist. What I love about Africa is its variety."
Randy Weston
