rafael casal is the shit part 2.
rafael casal's piece about a.d.d...
i have a little cousin whos like the smartest kid you'll ever meet and this totally describes him.
but anyways, once again... rafael casal is on point.
on and hes frickennn HOT.
gahhdaaamnnn! ahah
heres the lyrics and the video but its better to watch the video cuz yeah :)
enjoy!
im watching 6 kids standing around a play structure that just abruptly stopped shooting out the water they were playing with.
my nephew shaun, years and feet behind his insta-friends at cedar rose park,
stands among the cluster of kids trying to summon the water back.
me and the other parents watch and chuckle as the kids try different variations of "open sesame" at a non-responsive spout.
im afraid someday they gonna tell him he has attention defficate-
a disorder that 1 in 4 men are affected with.
the band aid on a mystery they wish to de-complicate then medicate to accomodate the commoness of why he cant concentrate.
they'll say in class he seems lost,
i'll say his mind has free sight.
but nowadays we raise young ones to be much more machine like.
because big industry needs employees who are machines right?
who dont make history, just live on some efficency hype.
marchings the mission; thats the mission, keep the seams tight.
and teach kids the repetition so they grow up industry types.
and heres my nephew...
homework in one hand,
and a serious addiction to the nineties tyko equivilent of legos in the other.
in this corner, an unbelieveibly white, blank, unanswered page of questions he can not be less engaged in.
and in the other corner,
a 4-foot long replica of the star wars millenium valkan created and constructed using pieces from four different leggo sets,
thats color coded, working loaded and ready.
clearly... it aint trouble paying attention.
he'd just rather be playing invention.
so as i investigate your motives for why you try to medicate him, i beg to question.
lets do the equation...
its $23.99 for a month of pills.
which is 10 milligrams.
thats 1000 milligrams in one gram.
thats 1000 divided by 10 milligrams.
thats 100 bottes times the price of one bottle thats $23.99.
thats roughly $2400 per every gram of ridallin in the country.
times that... see 1 kilo is 1000 grams.
so $2400 times 1000 grams is $2,400,000 per kilo of ridallin.
times the 17,618 that are brought in and sold in the pharmecuitical buisness in 2001.
that means they got a $42,283,200,000 industry.
its brilliant.
tell kids they're inferior, then have them buy back their efficiency.
at first i thought attention defficate must be on some new epidemic shit,
till i found out the u.s. consumes globally 90% of it.
diagnose you inferior so the prime-attized medics get your money in a country where you go broke buying your benefits.
and i dont want to see shaun ever look up from his book and see everyones on page 15 and wonder why hes still on page 2,
cuz hes been off somewhere dreaming about fighting dinosaurs, making lego robots, and drawing spiderman till his fingers hurt, and has to snap out of his daydream just to satisfy you.
dont ever tell shaun hes wrong.
if minds didnt wander we wouldn't have ghandi for your spiritual revolution.
no black power, fists shaking, and a crumbling divide.
no vietnam soldiers on their way home.
shit... hip hop came from kids who couldnt seem to pay attention.
there'd be no jazz, no tap,
shit...we'd still think the world was flat if it was not for straying attentions.
and as i watch my 3 year old nephews mind begin to wander, while the rest of the kids continue to bark secret code words at a dried up tap in hopes to bring it back to life,
shaun- much shorter and younger than the rest,
scans the payground, walks across the sand, and presses a shiny silver-dollar sized button on the red post, which restarts the spout and shoots water into the palms of eager youngsters.
he walks back to the group.
right then he could have been resolve, marks, monet, laruda, the one to walk outside the box and do something powerful.
they are afraid of you, shaun.
because you beg to question.
because boys like you grow into men worth a mention.
build the world with your blocks.
draw in any direction.
and if they EVER tell you that you cant focus,
good.
pay them no attention.
