In Windsor in the forties, and even up into the fifties and sixties, if you were black, you had to sit in the balcony of the theatres, and you couldn't buy property in most places.

I was thinking I'd sit in the balcony if I did go. But I had to be here to see them win. I left thinking they had won the game (Sunday).

America is essentially an entrepreneurial culture: the sizzle is the steak, because, after all, if you buy the sizzle, the steak comes with it. Canada's, in contrast, is a primary-producing culture: we'll buy the steak and hope to get a little sizzle with it. But we know we can't eat sizzle.

I remember 'The Norfolk Journal and Guide,' which is a black newspaper that still exists, but it was really influential, as you can imagine, in the Forties, Fifties, and Sixties. But all of their archives are online and digitized, and it was a really great resource.

As a lad growing up in the Fifties and Sixties, I played both Gaelic football and soccer and loved them both.

In New York in the Forties or Fifties, everybody's in a suit, an overcoat and a hat.
