This made me think of king­james:
On lan­guage. Lan­guage is a bridge to bring peo­ple togeth­er but it can also be a bar­ri­er that keeps them apart. Ivy Lea­guers talk dif­fer­ent­ly from gangstas. Gangstas talk dif­fer­ent­ly from com­put­er geeks. Com­put­er geeks talk dif­fer­ent­ly from jocks and so on and so forth. They each have their own code and their mem­bers hon­or that code. But soon­er or lat­er there emerges a diplo­mat from these diverse groups to close the gap between each oth­er. Maybe some hip hop­per with a pas­sion for Chaucer and SAT words gets in good with the Yale crowd, thus bring­ing the hood and acad­e­mia a lit­tle clos­er togeth­er. Or maybe a free-wheel­ing playa man macks with a devout social work­er, there­by bridg­ing the great divide between Baby­lon and Church. It’s all about mix­ing it up, cross­ing over, and com­ing togeth­er. To open up and share with one anoth­er the code we live by.
‑T.
