Interview
I think the interview went well. It was kind of rushed and last minute, but it went well, When I asked Kian what he thought inspired Langston, he said “Honestly, i think it was a way to release steam, or just a way for him to clear his mind” After this, I asked why. Simply, he just said. “That's just my bust guess. I wasn't born in that time period so I don't know what he/what anyone went through. That was just my best guess. When I asked about the backlash, he said of curse. No matter what you do, people will always be against you. When I asked him about the last question, how he’d react to modern day, he said “Like I said before, I wasn't there when it happened. I think there is on real way to know unless we ask him personally. But my best guess would be pretty upset. With trump as the new president, I've only heard bad things about him. Here in Bruit, he is laughed upon, it just shows how stupid Americans are” Then I mentioned Brexit, we had a hour long discussion about who is dumber, but that isn't for here and now.
