Really?!!? THAT'S how he reads it??? I thought it would be so much...faster. Frenetic. Frantic. I mean...it is written in long sentences said to be just long enough to say in one breath. I'm frankly disappointed by this reading.

This video could use a bit of work. More images, you know? So you can see Ginsberg in action, maybe with some of the other beats. AKA what he really did on friday nights.

The assertion that Ginsberg was antisemitic or homophobic is blatantly ignorant. It's simply not a fact. If you read more Ginsberg, you'd see his passion for humanity on the whole. At worst, he was a drug addicted man. Regardless, he is completely brilliant. Don't tie your lack of ethics into someone else's strife for them.
