“Colonialism is not a thinking machine, nor a body endowed with reasoning faculties. It is violence in its natural state, and it will only yield when confronted with greater violence.”
Fanon
“How, then, does one become an activist? The easy answer would be to say that we do not become activists; we simply forget that we are. We are all born with compassion, generosity, and love for others. We are all moved by injustice and discrimination. We are all, inside, concerned human beings. We all want to give more than to receive.” — Noam Chomsky, “On Palestine” (2015)
