"The idea of hegemony is that we are approving of it, we're agreeing to it, it's not that they're doing this to us. It's as if we're rushing like the souls in hell - we're rushing to it. It's important to see that this is the way the mechanism works, it's an important nuance to to add: we are co-conspirators in this normalizing process".
"To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places...To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away and never, never, to forget." ~ Arundhati Roy
