Creativity and innovation always builds on the past.
The past always tries to control the creativity that builds upon it.
Free societies enable the future by limiting this power of the past.
Ours is less and less a free society.

Texas was in the South but I was sure it was nothing like Mississippi or Alabama.”
--Carlos, interview with New York Magazine reporter in 1968
“About two minutes after I got [to Commerce], I noticed that my name changed from John Carlos to Boy.”
--Carlos, New York Magazine, 1968

--Texan at 1968 Olympics in Mexico City, (New York Magazine, November 1968)
