"[Art] has to be driven by a passion for something other than making art. If you're an artist and your main passion is making art, then that's like talking to someone whose main passion is talking. It gets boring really quick. Even though they're really good technically at it." -- Boots Riley

I'm kinda surprised by how hard Boots Riley is allowed to go in this Daily Show interview ("a mass militant, radical labor movement", "shut down profit"). Jordan Klepper does a good job of asking the right questions & then letting Boots cook.

GO SEE I LOVE BOOSTERS!

It's so fucking hilarious, but also all about solidarity & collective power, & all that good shit you expect from Boots Riley.

Probably the best way to honor the director's wishes would be to sneak into the theater to watch it without paying.

Excited to be going to see the new Boots Riley movie tonight! I Love Boosters looks like it will be a blast.

Wild that a guy with an album titled "Kill My Landlord" is able to get his films & shows financed at all, but I guess if someone is able to make money off of it, they'll finance anything. That's capitalism for ya.
