“
‘My
godson’s
experience
stimulated
this
piece
.
He’s
grown
up
in
Greenwich
Village
and
one
evening
while
out
with his
friends
the
police
swooped
down
upon
them. They were
thrown
against
a
fence
,
shoved
and
terrorized
.
Something
that had
happened
in the
subway
.
Talking
with
my
godson
, he
told
me
,
“the
taller
I
get
the
more
people
become
afraid
of
me
.
Why
do
women
clutch
their
bags…
they
know
me…
they
know
my
mother.”
