"Systems of domination frequently produce forms of injury—physical, psychological, cognitive, economic—which are subsequently reinterpreted as evidence of the innate inferiority of those who were injured. That reinterpretation legitimizes further exclusion and deprivation, creating a recursive cycle in which social causes are forgotten and their consequences are mistaken for natural facts. Attribution biases, historical amnesia, and narratives of separateness help sustain this cycle by obscuring the entanglement between those who benefit from existing arrangements and those who bear their costs".
"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
