"To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you.

To never look away and never, never, to forget." ~ Arundhati Roy

What if the foundation of true social cohesion is the collective acknowledgment of suffering rather than its erasure?"
