At Kingston Poly, the student union informed us that we couldn't perform our single "Killing an Arab." We got permission to play it after Robert calmly took several of the students aside and explained the song's literary origins. They were embarrassed, but grateful for the explanation. It wasn't just the skinheads who thought the song was racist: so did the college students! If Robert could have taken every listener aside and explained the song to them, we wouldn't have had so many difficulties starting out. Talking his way out of trouble was something Robert was very good at, something he had a lifetime of practice at.
