Mark’s Quotes

“Change does not occur without backlash—at least, any change worth having—and that backlash is an indicator that the change is so powerful that the opposing forces resist that change with everything they have.”
― Ibram X. Kendi, Four Hundred Souls: A Community History of African America, 1619-2019
