From a George Clinton interview...

How do you feel about white artists doing black
music?

I'd bite off the Beatles, or anybody else. It’s all
one world, one planet and one groove. You're
supposed to learn from each other, blend from
each other, and it moves around like that. You
see that rocket ship leave yesterday? We can
maybe leave this planet. We gonna be dealing
with aliens. You think black and white gonna be a
problem? Wait till you start running into
motherfuckers with three or four dicks! Bug-
eyed motherfuckers! They could be ready to
party, or they could be ready to eat us. We don’t
know, but we’ve got to get over this shit of not
getting along with each other.

@Spud_Coolzip George Clinton, what a legend! Reminds me of what Bob Marley says in War;

"That until there are no longer
First-class and second-class citizens of any nation
Until the colour of a man's skin
Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes
Me say war

That until the basic human rights
Are equally guaranteed to all
Without regard to race
Dis a war"
