Je rêve de faire une grande exposition à Cuba pour rendre hommage à Kid Chocolate. Tant de boxeurs à New York m’ont parlé de lui avec une telle admiration que, lorsque je suis allée à Cuba pour présenter mon film, invité par le musée français la MEP, la première chose que j’ai faite a été d’aller rencontrer Kid Chocolate. Si vous souhaitez en savoir plus sur Kid Chocolate, je lui consacre deux pages dans mon texte Do or Die.

« […]Here, with powerful pictures and strong words, Martine Barrat captures the spirit of young fighters who, with the other guy’s blood on their gloves, return joyously to their concerns. »-extract from the introduction by Gordon Parks.
« Startling, beautiful, disturbing -these are my impressions on viewing these images by Martine Barrat for the first time.
Pictures of the inner city give us the backdrop – the devastation of the streets, desolation, scenes from a virtual war zone which point up, above all, the overwhelming odds against, not living osucceding, but just simply surviving.[…]
[…] These are georgous, strong photographs and no matter what you may feel about them, they reflect the one thing that remains sadly true of survival: Get angry and stay angry and fight your way out. What else did you expect? »-extract from the foreword by Martin Scorsese.
I dream to do a big show in Cuba to remember Kid Chocolate. So many fighters in new york told me with such an admiration about him, and when I went to Cuba to show my film, invited by the French museum the MEP, to show my film the first thing I did was to meet Kid Chocolate. If you want to know more about Kid Chocolate, I have two pages about him in my text in Do or Die.
