You cannot buy the revolution. You cannot make the revolution. You can only be the revolution. It is in your spirit, or it is nowhere.
Ursula K LeGuin


Theory and practice are not only interwoven with one’s culture but with the responsibility of shaping the environment, of breaking up social complacency, and challenging the power of the status quo.
Sambo Mockbee







A book is a bridge is a balm is a byway, and everyone wears their many hats stacked upon the hard work of building something better for the next go-round the sun. If I can hot-wire the civics lesson, we’ll end up in a fast car with a ticket to everywhere. The key to the every city dangles on a pinky promise to do better, to try harder, to make way, and do it a little differently together.
