Quotes by Michelle Ferrigno Warren (?)

“When our lens is shaped by proximity to the poor, the way we view right and wrong begins to shift our social construct in subtle ways. A social construct is an idea or ideal formed in context. It grows out of societal ideals, so it can impart a sense of authority about the correct or incorrect way to act or believe. Social construct goes beyond social mores; it is based on our understanding of what is acceptable and right. As an educated, privileged white American my social construct was limited to that perspective, which is why proximity to the poor was so powerful--it forced my view to expand.”

“When we respond to the immediate needs of the poor, we are choosing to be merciful. That is good, but that is not necessarily justice. Justice is not a response to a problem, mercy is. Justice looks beyond the problem to see how people ended up in that broken place and works to overcome barriers so they can be restored.”

“The reason proximity to the poor is powerful is that it slowly erodes our view of ourselves and our way of life and then expands our view of the world.”
