John Green
“We cannot address TB only with vaccines and medications. We cannot address it only with comprehensive STP programs. We must also address the root cause of tuberculosis, which is injustice. In a world where everyone can eat, and access healthcare, and be treated humanely, tuberculosis has no chance. Ultimately, we are the cause.

We must also be the cure.”
John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

“This may seem unrelated, but we need to be clear that the gendered aspect of the witch trials did not go away after the trials. The fear and hatred seen in our society over three hundred years later are a straight line drawn from those days and attitudes.

Claire Mitchell, How to Kill a Witch: The Patriarchy's Guide to Silencing Women
