Assata Shakur
“It is our duty to fight for our freedom.
It is our duty to win.
We must love each other and support each other.
We have nothing to lose but our chains.”
Assata Shakur, Assata: An Autobiography

Raj Patel
“If war is gods way of teaching geography to Americans, then recession is his way of teaching little economics to everyone”
Raj Patel, The Value of Nothing: How to Reshape Market Society and Redefine Democracy

Joan Didion
“People with self-respect exhibit a certain toughness, a kind of moral nerve; they display what was once called *character,* a quality which, although approved in the abstract, sometimes loses ground to the other, more instantly negotiable virtues.... character--the willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life--is the source from which self-respect springs.”
Joan Didion, Slouching Towards Bethlehem

“Most of us, most of the time, act within plays the lines of which were written long ago, the images of which require recognition, not invention.”
Sidney W. Mintz, Sweetness and Power: The Place of Sugar in Modern History

Noam Chomsky
“For those who stubbornly seek freedom, there can be no more urgent task than to come to understand the mechanisms and practices of indoctrination. These are easy to perceive in the totalitarian societies, much less so in the system of 'brainwashing under freedom' to which we are subjected and which all too often we serve as willing or unwitting instruments.”
Noam Chomsky
