Fair And White: Parts I, II, III and Extra

Overview

“‘FAIR AND WHITE’ is the name of a line of beauty parlors in Paris largely catering to an African-French clientele. No-one apparently goes berserk seeing the signs. We were visiting Pip Chodorov in the Latin Quarter and found ourselves walking through a concentration of such establishments. I had my 3-D outfit, two small Vado video-cameras mounted side-by-side for the capture of stereo images. There is a law in France against photographing people without their expressed agreement, a decent law, right? And I broke it and I’ll break any such law that forbids memory, corpuscular or mechanical.” -Jacobs
