Flutterby™! : Grand Master speech

I had a couple of posts saved off that linked to the video of this, then I dropped them 'cause when am I gonna watch that, and now I can't find 'em, but... the notes: N K Jemisin: Text of my Grand Master speech:

There is value in tradition, until it becomes a chain wrapped around a child. To people who feel that there is a threat to tradition, anything is better than growth, even death.

That's a balance I'm definitely struggling with, but I sure appreciate Jemisin's take.
