Deutsche Übersetzung

Wir können uns nicht ständig unter einer gefälschten Rassenvorstellung verbarrikadieren, weil unsere Vorstellung von Schwärze und Rasse einfach reaktionär ist. Afrikaner sind nicht schwarz und stolz durch Afrika gegangen, sie sind stolz herumgelaufen.

Because the mask is your face, the face is a mask, so I'm thinking of the face as a mask because of the way I see faces is coming from an African vision of the mask which is the thing that we carry around with us, it is our presentation, it's our front, it's our face.
