Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame. "Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door! — Emma Lazarus, "The New Colossus" (1883) 🗽📜🇺🇸 ・・・・・ #Repost @z_al with @repostapp ・・・・・ @the_oa @britmarling @netflix #statueofliberty #theoa #netflix #britmarling #oa #zalbatmanglij #emmalazarus #thenewcolossus #sonnet #1883 #libertyisland #newyork #statueofliberty #thestatueofliberty #freedom #🇺🇸 #🗽 #huddledmasses #breathe #free #givemeyourtired #homeless #temptest #yearningtobreathefree #huddledmassesyearningtobreathefree #sendthesethehomelesstempesttosttome #strongertogether #OURmerica #landforallpeople

Yesterday I wore this T-shirt from a production company we made a commercial with a long time ago, underneath my shirt-shirt, secretly sporting a unified America right over my sternum. Yet, and yet, and yet—years of laundering has cracked the ink they used, un-unifying the shape, fragmenting the image, so now in reality it looks like a statistical representation, visually mapped, of various constituencies and demographics throughout the country. Even the laundry wants to point out we’re heterogeneous. How can any pragmatic person be nationalist, really? How can anyone expect this wide shape to be consistent coast to coast? How can someone consider us one nation under anything, when even the laundered promotional T-shirt knows we’re a disparate smash-together of widely varied people melting together slowly, slowwwwwly, over decades and centuries. It’s what’s interesting, the melting. It’s what’s attractive about that shape—all those dots learning from each other, not just tolerating the differences and making them work but finding out about each other. What’s the point of turning all those map-dots against each other, for Pete’s sake? #america #murca #promisedland #landofthefree #huddledmasses #yearningtobefree #meltingpot #dividedwestand #midterms #midtermelections #midterms2018 #ruminating (at Noblesville, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp6EZVZH1T5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tcbgpv23lbnd
