“Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is in an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob, and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe.”

– Frederick Douglass (Speech on the twenty-fourth anniversary of emancipation in Washington. D.C.)

-Chinua Achebe (No Longer at Ease)
