Quotes by Charles Derber (?)

“I think we can survive—and resist both US authoritarianism and corporatism while creating a democratic revolution—only if the majority of Americans either become the kind of activist I describe in this book—or support those who do.”
― Charles Derber, Welcome to the Revolution: Universalizing Resistance for Social Justice and Democracy in Perilous Times

“For progressive universalizers, the vision is an egalitarian society leveling the playing field and delivering good jobs and fair rewards across class, race, and gender.”
