K.C. Cole
“The universe is just one big happy tapestry of tangled relationships that can never be unraveled. There is no chair here, butterfly there; particle here, void there; time here, gravity there. There is only the picture that emerges from all pulling together, a great mosaic that seems unrecognizable close up, but comes into focus as we stand back and observe from a more distant, and broader, perspective.”
K.C. Cole, The Hole in the Universe

Edward S. Herman
“Advertisers will want, more generally, to avoid programs with serious complexities and disturbing controversies that interfere with the "buying mood." They seek programs that will lightly entertain and thus fit in with the spirit of the primary purpose of program purchases—the dissemination of a selling message.”
Edward S. Herman, Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media

Karla Cornejo Villavicencio
“For many years when I have heard nice people try to be respectful about describing undocumented people, I’ve heard them call us “undocumented workers” as a euphemism, as if there was something uncouth about being just an undocumented person standing with your hands clasped together or at your sides. I almost wish they’d called us something rude like “crazy fuckin’ Mexicans” because that’s acknowledging something about us beyond our usefulness—we’re crazy, we’re Mexican, we’re clearly unwanted!—but to describe all of us, men, women, children, locally Instagram-famous teens, queer puppeteers, all of us, as workers in order to make us palatable, my god. We were brown bodies made to labor, faces pixelated.”
Karla Cornejo Villavicencio, The Undocumented Americans

Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò
“That I have experienced my share of traumatic experiences, have survived abuse of various kinds, have faced near death from accidental circumstance and from violence...is not a card to play in gamified social interaction or a weapon to wield in battles over prestige. It is not what gives me a special right to speak, to evaluate, or to decide for a group. It is a concrete, experiential manifestation of the vulnerability that connects me to most of the people on this earth. It comes between me and other people not as a wall, but as a bridge.”
Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò, Elite Capture: How the Powerful Took Over Identity Politics

Emma Restall Orr
“To the animist, a state of permanent enlightenment is not considered natural. His senses inform him that, firstly, life is sustained by a balance of light and darkness, and, secondly, it is lived for the most part in neither darkness nor light, but in varying degrees of twilight and shadow, of half knowing, believing, assuming and concluding”
Emma Restall Orr, The Wakeful World: Animism, Mind and the Self in Nature
