I am one of the few Black Graphic Designers that entered the industry back in the early 80’s practicing in STL. Mr. Parks served as one of the only sources of inspiration of creative professionals I was introduced to. Now 4+ decades later, this interview offers so many priceless takeaways for me personally. Thank you for sharing this interview.
At makes so happy to see this kind if class in a human being on matter what rave but especially him. The most upper in every day. Reminds me of the great Duke Ellington . what a great classic man on every level. I want every one watching look up its Documentary. As well as Allen Truant
Terrific interview with Parks and his skillset in various art forms. His photography was very stylish and nice sample here. Just saw the Learning Tree and would like to read the book.
Can someone please caption this interview? It is hard to tell word-by-word what they are saying to each other (ex. on 9:18 where he mentioned french artists)
Artists mentioned: Degas, Braque, Bernard, Picasso, Van Gogh, and Chagall, as in Edgar Degas, Georges Braque, Emile Bernard, Pablo Picasso, Vincent van Gogh, and Marc Chagall
No black men should look up to this men. Gordon sparks was an informant on the black panther party. He was the solo gatekeeper and ushered in the Blacksplotation area. It was NOT jews in the 70's -80's that forced us into roles and pimps and whores and killers. It was this one man. To this day, most black films we are gangster. Sidney Poitier hated this man because Gordon Sparks started and foster the lie that blacksploation films where the only movies Hollywood would make but just a simple Google of Sidney Poitier and many other black actors that hated Sparks would show that Hollywood spent millions trying to showcase black people In positive light in the 60's and 70's before they caved.
Look at his photography. He brought so much humanity in his portraits of black life especially during the Civil Rights Era. He was the first black photographer on LIFE magazine(arguably one of the most tasteful and popular publications of the day) and his work was exhibited in renowned galleries. So he was one of the people that normalized and advocated for black Civil Rights. You can't say no one should look up to him. Also his film Shaft was inspired by what was already happening in the intercity. So he didn't invent "pimps" when they already existed

How he talks about Paris is so accurate. I was there this summer & that's how I felt about the city, it has an infectious air to it

What an inspiration.
Orsen Wells you've met your match. Citizen Parks. Photographer, musician, director, . screenwriter, poet. The list goes on.

He'd shrug his shoulder's and say " He's entitled to his opinion ". I know because he was my grandfather.
