Jackson. Known for his comedic timing and especially for his love of dropping the F-bomb, Jackson donned a red, white and blue suit with a top hat to introduce Lamar at “the Great American Game.”\u003c/p\u003e\n\t\n\u003cp\u003eThe characterization offered a different narrative of what patriotic Uncle Sam, normally depicted as a white man, looks like. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut as Jackson emceed Lamar’s performance, his role took on one of a different uncle: an Uncle Tom. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe term, which originates from Harriet Beecher Stowe’s 1852 novel “Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” refers to Black Americans who turn their backs on the Black community and culture and willingly embrace subservience to White Americans. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJackson famously took on an Uncle Tom-themed character in 2012’s “Django Unchained.”\u003c/p\u003e\n\t\n\u003cp\u003eAt one point during the performance, the actor accused Lamar of being “too loud, too reckless, too ghetto,” voicing stereotypes often associated with Black Americans and hip-hop music. \u003c/p\u003e\n The revolution \n\u003cp\u003eEarly in his performance, Lamar speaks of “the revolution,” telling the audience that “the revolution is about to be televised. You picked the right time but the wrong guy.”\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe line was in reference to Gil Scott-Heron’s 1971 poem “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised,” which argues that change does not come from corporations but individuals and that the media will not showcase the violence of racism.  \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut Lamar’s “wrong guy” reference, some social media users speculated, was a direct attack on President Donald Trump, who was in attendance on Sunday. \u003c/p\u003e\n\t\n\u003cp\u003eWhile Trump won the support of several prominent hip-hop artists, including Lil Wayne and Kodak Black, Lamar has been known to criticize the president in his songs “The Heart Part 4” and “XXX.”\u003c/p\u003e\n Mass incarceration \n\u003cp\u003eThe set for Lamar’s performance sent its own message. As the rapper and his all-Black dancers spun around the field, it soon became clear they were performing in a prison yard. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe set was designed to highlight the issue of mass incarceration and the racial disparities of those behind bars. Black Americans are incarcerated at much higher rates than White Americans, even for the same crimes. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough Lamar has never faced incarceration, he often raps about the carceral system’s impact on Black Americans, such as his featured appearance on Beyonce’s song “Freedom,” where he calls for “opening correctional gates in higher deserts.”\u003c/p\u003e\n\t\n\u003cp\u003eSunday’s performance was not the first live show Lamar has used to highlight the disparities of the justice system. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt his 2016 Grammy performance, he dressed in a prison uniform and led a chain gang of backup dancers across the stage as musicians performed in prison cells.\u003c/p\u003e\n The American flag \n\u003cp\u003eLamar’s backup dancers were dressed in red, white and blue, but if the message of the flag wasn’t clear enough, they came together during “Humble” to form the image explicitly. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt one point during the line-up, the dancers all bent forward, lifting their backs in the air. Many on social media theorized the move was meant to indicate how America was built on the backs of Black Americans during slavery. \u003c/p\u003e\n\t\n\u003cp\u003eShortly after, the dancers separated, standing in two groups on either side of Lamar. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe image of the divided flag seemed to speak to political divisions around the nation, to which Lamar alludes with the line “It’s a cultural divide.” \u003c/p\u003e\n 40 Acres and a Mule \n\u003cp\u003eAhead of the highly anticipated performance of “Not Like Us,” Lamar raps to his backup singers, “40 acres and mule, this is bigger than the music.” \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe line was in reference to reparations promised to Black Americans following the end of slavery.\u003c/p\u003e\n\t\n\u003cp\u003eOn Jan. 16, 1865, Union General William T. Sherman’s Special Field Order No. 15 called for each formerly enslaved family to receive 40 acres of land. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe promise was never fulfilled, and the order is often raised in conversations around reparations for Black Americans.\u003c/p\u003e\n Serena Williams \n\u003cp\u003eIf fans were surprised to see Jackson join Lamar’s performance, they were shocked when tennis legend Serena Williams took the stage to dance alongside Lamar’s team. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWilliams’s appearance was a direct diss to her ex, Canadian rapper Drake, the subject of “Not Like Us.” \u003c/p\u003e\n\t\n\u003cp\u003eBut Williams, decked out in a royal blue tennis skirt and matching jacket, didn’t just dance: She was crip walking. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe move, a series of intricate foot movements, was created by the Crips, a predominantly Black gang from Southern California. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWilliams, like Lamar, is from Compton, a city with deep hip-hop roots. But her performance on Sunday harkened back to her 2012 victory over Maria Sharapova at the Olympics.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tennis superstar faced major criticism for her dance that year, with some calling the move “tasteless” and “crass” as others accused her of glamorizing gang violence. Supporters of Williams accused those critics of being biased and even racist. \u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWilliams on Sunday spoke of the experience. In a video posted on social media, the Olympian said, “Man, I did not crip walk like that at Wimbledon.

Admitían que la muchacha resultaba agraciada, tocaba el piano y bailaba como ninguna, pero había otras postulantes a ese galardón mucho más hermosas. La vieron de pie en el estrado, con su vestido de organza y su corona de flores saludando a la muchedumbre y entre dientes la maldijeron. Por eso, algunas de ellas se alegraron cuando meses más tarde el infortunio entró en la casa de los Orellano sembrando tanta fatalidad, que se necesitaron veinticinco años para cosecharla.\u003ca href=\"https://www.uv.mx/lectores/files/2015/01/allende.jpg\" data-fancybox=\"gallery\"\u003e\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://www.uv.mx/lectores/files/2015/01/allende-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"allende\" width=\"373\" height=\"373\"\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLa noche de la elección de la reina hubo baile en la Alcaldía de Santa Teresa y acudieron jóvenes de remotos pueblos para conocer a Dulde Rosa. Ella estaba tan alegre y bailaba con tanta ligereza que muchos no percibieron que en realidad no era la más bella, y cuando regresaron a sus puntos de par tida dijeron que jamás habían visto un rostro como el suyo. Así adquirió inmerecida fama de hermosura y ningún testimonio posterior pudo desmentirla. La exagerada descripción de su piel traslúcída y sus ojos diáfanos, pasó de boca en boca y cada quien le agregó algo de su propia fantasía. Los poetas de ciudades apartadas compusieron sonetos para una doncella hipotética de nombre Dulce Rosa.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEl rumor de esa belleza floreciendo en la casa del Senador Orellano llegó también a oídos de Tadeo Céspedes, quien nunca imaginó conocerla, porque en los años de su existencia no había tenido tiempo de aprender versos ni mirar mujeres. Él se ocupaba sólo de la Guerra Civil. Desde que empezó a afeitarse el bigote tenía un arma en la mano y desde hacía mucho vivía en el fragor de la pólvora. Había olvidado los besos de su madre y hasta los cantos de la misa. No siempre tuvo razones para ofrecer pelea, porque en algunos períodos de tregua no había adversarios al alcance de su pandilla, pero incluso en esos tiempos de paz forzosa vivió como un corsario. Era hombre habítuado a la violencia. Cruzaba el país en todas direcciones luchando contra enemigos visibles, cuando los había, y contra las sombras, cuando debía inventarlos, y así habría continuado sí su partido no gana las elecciones presidenciales. De la noche a la mañana pasó de la clandestinidad a hacerse cargo del poder y se le terminaron los pretextos para seguir alborotando.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLa última misión de Tadeo Cérpedes fue la expedición punitiva a Santa Teresa. Con ciento veinte hombres entró al pueblo de noche para dar un escarmiento y eliminar a los cabecillas de la oposición. Balearon las ventanas de los edificios públicos, destrozaron la puerta de la iglesia y se metieron a caballo hasta el altar mayor, aplastando al Padre Clemente que se les plantó por delante, y siguieron al galope con un estrépito de guerra en dirección a la villa del Senador Orellano, que se alzaba plena de orgullo sobre la colina.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA la cabeza de una docena de sirvientes leales, el Senador esperó a Tadeo Céspedes, después de encerrar a su hija en la última habitación del patio y soltar a los perros. En ese momento lamentó, como tantas otras veces en su vida, no tener descendientes varones que lo ayudaran a empuñar las armas y defender el honor de su casa. Se sintió muy viejo, pero no tuvo tiempo de pensar en ello, porque vio en las laderas del cerro el destello terrible de ciento veinte antorchas que se aproximaban espantando a la noche. Repartió las últimas municiones en silencio. Todo estaba dicho y cada uno sabía que antes del amanecer debería morir como un macho en su puesto de pelea.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e—El último tomará la llave del cuarto donde está mí hija y cumplirá con su deber —dijo el Senador al oír los primeros tiros.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTodos esos hombres habían visto nacer a Dulce Rosa y la tuvieron en sus rodillas cuando apenas caminaba, le contaron cuentos de aparecidos en las tardes de invierno, la oyeron tocar el piano y la aplaudieron emocionados el día de su coronación como Reina del Carnaval. Su padre podía morir tranquilo, pues la niña nunca caería viva en las manos de Tadeo Céspedes. Lo único que jamás pensó el Senador Orellano fue que a pesar de su temeridad en la batalla, el último en morir sería él. Vio caer uno a uno a sus amigos y comprendíóó\u0026gt; por fin la inutilidad de seguir resistiendo. Tenía una bala en el vientre y la vista difusa, apenas distinguía las sombras trepando por las altas murallas de su propiedad, pero no le falló el entendimiento para arrastrarse hasta el tercer patio. Los perros reconocieron su olor por encima del sudor, la sangre y la tristeza que lo cubrían y se apartaron para dejarlo pasar. Introdujo la llave en la cerradura, abrió la pesada puerta y a través de la niebla metida en sus ojos vio a Dulce Rosa aguardándolo. La niña llevaba el mismo vestido de organza usado en la fiesta de Carnaval y había adornado su peinado con las flores de la corona.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e—Es la hora, hija —dijo gatillando el arma mientras a sus pies crecía un charco de sangre.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e—No me mate, padre —replicó ella con voz firme—. Déjeme viva, para vengarlo y para vengarme.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEl Senador Anselmo Orellano observó el rostro de quince años de su hija e imaginó lo que haría con ella Tadeo Céspedes, pero había gran fortaleza en los ojos transparentes de Dulce Rosa y supo que podría sobrevivir para castigar a su verdugo. La muchacha se sentó sobre la cama y él tomó lugar a su lado, apuntando la puerta.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCuando se calló el bullicio de los perros moribundos, cedió la tranca, saltó el pestillo y los primeros hombres írrumpieron en la habitación, el Senador alcanzó a hacer seis disparos antes de perder el conocimiento. Tadeo Céspedes creyó estar soñando al ver un ángel coronado de jazmines que sostenía en los brazos a un viejo agonizante, mientras su blanco vestido se empapaba de rojo, pero no le alcanzó la piedad para una segunda mirada, porque venía borracho de violencia y enervado por varias horas de combate.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e—La mujer es para mí —dijo antes de que sus hombres le pusieran las manos encima.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAmaneció un viernes plomizo, teñido por el resplandor del incendio. El silencio era denso en la colina. Los últimos gemidos se habían callado cuando Dulce Rosa pudo ponerse de pie y caminar hacia la fuente del jardín, que el día anterior estaba rodeada de magnolias y ahora era sólo un charco tumultuoso en medio de los escombros. Del vestido no quedaban sino jirones de organza, que ella se quitó lentamente para quedar desnuda. Se sumergió en el agua fría. El sol apareció entre los abedules y la muchacha pudo ver el agua volverse rosada al lavar la sangre que le brotaba entre las piernas y la de su padre, que se había secado en su cabello. Una vez limpia, serena y sin lágrimas, volvió a la casa en ruinas, buscó algo para cubrirse, tomó una sábana de bramante y salió al camino a recoger los restos del Senador. Lo habían atado de los pies para arrastrarlo al galope por las laderas de la colina hasta convertirlo en un guiñapo de lástima, pero guiada por el amor, su hija pudo reconocerlo sin vacilar. Lo envolvió en el paño y se sentó a su lado a ver crecer el día. Así la encontraron los vecinos de Santa Teresa cuando se atrevieron a subir a la villa de los Orellano. Ayudaron a Dulce Rosa a enterrar a sus muertos y a apagar los vestigios del incendio y le suplicaron que se fuera a vivir con su madrina a otro pueblo, donde nadie conociera su historia, pero ella se negó. Entonces formaron cuadrillas para reconstruir la casa y le regalaron seis perros bravos para cuidarla.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesde el mismo instante en que se llevaron a su padre aún vivo, y Tadeo Céspedes cerró la puerta a su espalda y se soltó el cinturón de cuero, Dulce Rosa vivió para vengarse. En los años siguientes ese pensamiento la mantuvo despierta por las noches y ocupó sus días, pero no borró del todo su risa ni secó su buena voluntad. Aumentó su reputación de belleza, porque los cantores fueron por todas partes pregonando sus encantos imaginarios, hasta convertirla en una leyenda viviente. Ella se levantaba cada día a las cuatro de la madrugada para dirigir las faenas del campo y de la casa, recorrer su propiedad a lomo de bestía, comprar y vender con regateos de sirio, criar animales y cultivar las magnolias y los jazmines de su jardín. Al caer la tarde se quitaba los pantalones, las botas y las armas y se colocaba los vestidos primorosos, traídos de la capital en baúles aromáticos. Al anochecer comenzaban a llegar sus visitas y la encontraban tocando el piano, mientras las sirvientas preparaban las bandejas de pasteles y los vasos de horchata. Al principio muchos se preguntaron cómo era posible que la joven no hubiera acabado en una camisa de fuerza en el sanatorio o de novicia en las monjas carmelitas, sin embargo, como había fiestas frecuentes en la villa de los Orellano, con el tiempo la gente dejó de hablar de la tragedia y se borró el recuerdo del Senador asesinado. Algunos caballeros de renombre y fortuna lograron sobreponerse al estigma de la violación y, atraídos por el prestigio de belleza y sensatez de Dulce Rosa, le propusieron matrimonio. Ella los rechazó a todos, porque su misión en este mundo era la venganza.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTadeo Céspedes tampoco pudo quitarse de la memoria esa noche aciaga. La resaca de la matanza y la euforia de la violación se le pasaron a las pocas horas, cuando iba camino a la capital a rendir cuentas de su expedición de castigo. Entonces acudió a su mente la niña vestida de baile y coronada de jazrnines, que lo soportó en silencio en aquella habitación oscura donde el aire estaba impregnado de olor a pólvora. Volvió a verla en el momento final, tirada en el suelo, mal cubierta por sus harapos enrojecidos, hundida en el sueño compasivo de la inconsciencia y así siguió viéndola cada noche en el instante de dormir, durante el resto de su vida. La paz, el ejercicio del gobierno y el uso del poder, lo convirtieron en un hombre reposado y laborioso. Con el transcurso del tiempo se perdieron los recuerdos de la Guerra Civil y la gente empezó a llamarlo don Tadeo. Se compró una hacienda al otro lado de la sierra, se dedicó a administrar justicia y acabó de alcalde. Si no hubiera sido por el fantasma incansable de Dulce Rosa Orellano, tal vez habría alcanzado cierta felicidad, pero en todas las mujeres que se cruzaron en su camino, en todas las que abrazó en busca de consuelo y en todos los amores perseguidos a lo largo de los años, se le aparecía el rostro de la Reina del Carnaval. Y para mayor desgracia suya, las canciones que a veces traían su nombre en versos de poetas populares no le permitían apartarla de su corazón. La imagen de la joven creció dentro de él, ocupándolo enteramente, hasta que un día no aguantó más. Estaba en la cabecera de una larga mesa de banquete celebrando sus cincuenta y siete años, rodeado de amigos y colaboradores, cuando creyó ver sobre el mantel a una criatura desnuda entre capullos de jazmines y comprendió que esa pesadilla no lo dejaría en paz ni después de muerto. Dio un golpe de puño que hizo temblar la vajilla y pidió su sombrero y su bastón.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e—¿Adónde va, don Tadeo? —preguntó el Prefecto. —A reparar un daño antiguo —respondió saliendo sin despedirse de nadie.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNo tuvo necesidad de buscarla, porque siempre supo que se encontraba en la misma casa de su desdicha y hacia allá dirigió su coche. Para entonces existían buenas carreteras y las distancias parecían más cortas. El paisaje había cambiado en esas décadas, pero al dar la última curva de la colina apareció la villa tal como la recordaba antes de que su pandilla la tomara por asalto. Allí estaban las sólidas paredes de piedra de río que él destruyera con cargas de dinamita, allí los viejos artesonados de madera oscura que prendieron en llamas, allí los árboles de los cuales colgó los cuerpos de los hombres del Senador, allí el patio donde masacró a los perros. Detuvo su vehículo a cien metros de la puerta y no se atrevió a seguir, porque sintió el corazón explotándole dentro del pecho. Iba a dar media vuelta para regresar por donde mismo había llegado, cuando surgió entre los rosales una figura envuelta en el halo de sus faldas. Cerró los párpados deseando con toda su fuerza que ella no lo reconociera. En la suave luz de la seis percibió a Dulce Rosa Orellano que avanzaba flotando por los senderos del jardín. Notó sus cabellos, su rostro claro, la armonía de sus gestos, el revuelo de su vestido y creyó encontrarse suspendido en un sueño que duraba ya veinticinco años.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e—Por fin vienes, Tadeo Céspedes —dijo ella al divisarlo, sin dejarse engañar por su traje negro de alcalde ni su pelo gris de caballero, porque aún tenía las mismas manos de pirata.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e—Me has perseguido sin tregua. No he podido amar a nadie en toda mi vida, sólo a ti —murmuró él con la voz rota por la vergüenza.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDulce Rosa Orellano suspiró satisfecha. Lo había llamado con el pensamiento de día y de noche durante todo ese tiempo y por fin estaba allí. Había llegado su hora. Pero lo miró a los ojos y no descubrió en ellos ni rastro del verdugo, sólo lágrimas frescas. Buscó en su propio corazón el odio cultivado a lo largo de su vida y no fue capaz de encontrarlo. Evocó el instante en que le pidió a su padre el sacrificio de dejarla con vida para cumplir un deber, revivió el abrazo tantas veces maldito de ese hombre y la madrugada en la cual envolvió unos despojos tristes en una sábana de bramante. Repasó el plan perfecto de su venganza pero no sintió la alegría esperada, sino, por el contrario, una profunda melancolía. Tadeo Céspedes tornó su mano con delicadeza y besó la palma, mojándola con su llanto. Entonces ella comprendió aterrada que de tanto pensar en él a cada momento, saboreando el castigo por anticipado, se le dio vuelta el sentimiento y acabó por amarlo.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEn los días siguientes ambos levantaron las compuertas del amor reprimido y por vez primera en sus ásperos destinos se abrieron para recibir la proximidad del otro. Paseaban por los jardines hablando de sí mismos, sin omitir la noche fatal que torció el rumbo de sus vidas. Al atardecer, ella tocaba el píano y él fumaba escuchándola hasta sentir los huesos blandos y la felicidad envolviéndolo como un manto y borrando las pesadillas del tiempo pasado. Después de cenar Tadeo Céspedes partía a Santa Teresa, donde ya nadie recordaba la vieja historia de horror. Se hospedaba en el mejor hotel y desde allí organizaba su boda, quería una fiesta con fanfarria, derroche y bullicio, en la cual participara todo el pueblo. Descubrió el amor a una edad en que otros hombres han perdido la ilusión y eso le devolvió la fortaleza de su juventud. Deseaba rodear a Dulce Rosa de afecto y belleza, darle todas las cosas que el dinero pudiera comprar, a ver si conseguía compensar en sus años de viejo, el mal que le hiciera de joven. En algunos momentos lo invadía el pánico. Espiaba el rostro de ella en busca de los signos del rencor, pero sólo veía la luz del amor compartido y eso le devolvía la confianza. Así pasó un mes de dicha.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDos días antes del casamiento, cuando ya estaban armando los mesones de la fiesta en el jardín, matando las aves y los cerdos para la comilona y cortando las flores para decorar la casa, Dulce Rosa Orellano se probó el vestido de novia. Se vio reflejada en el espejo, tan parecida al día de su coronación como Reina del Carnaval, que no pudo seguir engañando a su propio corazón. Supo que jamás podría realizar la venganza planeada porque amaba al asesino, pero tampoco podría callar al fantasma del Senador, así es que despidió a la costurera, tomó las tijeras y se fue a la habitación del tercer patio que durante todo ese tiempo había permanecido desocupada.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTadeo Céspedes la buscó por todas partes, llamándola desesperado.
