  I also think

13:48

that we need to pay some attention to the question of how we speak, to whom we

13:53

are speaking, with whom we are speaking.  I think we need to be able to make

13:59

a distinction between the making of statements and the ethical practice

14:08

of thinking and studying together in the face of the common malady that

14:15

we are confronted with. I think that over the last two weeks

14:22

many people have felt compelled to speak, to make a statement

14:30

and I think now we need to follow a different compulsion which is to talk

14:36

with one another to study and think with one another and to think with regard to a specific question which is how do we

14:49

renew and refine our anti-colonial

14:55

practices. That's why I'm here to today, I'm not here to make a

15:01

statement but I'm here to be involved in a conversation with you and

15:06

whoever else is out there, how can we renew and refine our anti-colonial

15:13

practices.
