“Race is the modality in which class is lived.”
― Stuart Hall

“The Commune, they exclaim, intends to abolish property, the basis of all civilization! Yes, gentlemen, the Commune intended to abolish that class property which makes the labour of the many the wealth of the few.”
― Karl Marx, The Civil War in France

“I have never worked on race and ethnicity as a kind of subcategory; I have always worked on the whole social formation which is racialised”
― Stuart Hall

“Working men’s Paris, with its Commune, will be forever celebrated as the glorious harbinger of a new society. Its martyrs are enshrined in the great heart of the working class. Its exterminators history has already nailed to that eternal pillory from which all the prayers of their priest will not avail to redeem them.”
― Karl Marx, The Civil War in France
