Book cover for The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness
The harm done by this social silence is more than interpersonal. The silence—driven by stigma and fear of shame—results in a repression of public thought, a collective denial of lived experience.

Lawrence Wright
“There in the course of one hour, a little elderly woman who embodied the spirit of nonviolence single-handedly prevented loss of life, and a preppie young man with fast fists flying also prevented violence. I would not presume to judge who was doing the will of God on that snowy February afternoon.”
Lawrence Wright, Saints and Sinners: Walker Railey, Jimmy Swaggart, Madalyn Murray O'Hair, Anton LaVey, Will Campbell , Matthew Fox

Tracy Daugherty
“In interviews, McMurtry frequently mentioned that whenever he wrote a novel now, he paused to consider which young bankable actors could play his characters in a movie, and if he could think of none, he would change his characters to fit Hollywood's realities. Such comments sounded like further attempts to disabuse his readers from clinging to nostalgic notions of the Novel as High Art.”
Tracy Daugherty, Larry McMurtry: A Life

Tracy Daugherty
“Working on novels, he reaffirmed his belief that nothing important could really be explained; it could only be experienced in the daily clutter of stuff that fiction was so good at cataloguing. [re: Larry McMurtry]”
Tracy Daugherty, Larry McMurtry: A Life

Tracy Daugherty
“our emotional experience remains largely unexplored, and therein lie the dramas, poems, and novels." [Larry McMurtry]”
Tracy Daugherty, Larry McMurtry: A Life

Jimmy Carter
“A person should have as our goal complete agape (self-sacrificial love). The most we can expect from a society is to institute simple justice.”
Jimmy Carter, Faith: A Journey for All
