Quotes by Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor (?)

“Justice is not a natural part of the lifecycle of the United States, nor is it a product of evolution; it is always the outcome of struggle.”
― Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, From #BlackLivesMatter to Black Liberation

“The essence of economic inequality is borne out in a simple fact: there are 400 billionaires in the United States and 45 million people living in poverty. These are not parallel facts; they are intersecting facts. There are 400 American billionaires because there are 45 million people living in poverty. Profit comes at the expense of the living wage. Corporate executives, university presidents, and capitalists in general are living the good life--because so many others are living a life of hardship.”
― Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, From #BlackLivesMatter to Black Liberation

“We reject pedestals, queenhood, and walking ten paces behind. To be recognized as human, levelly human, is enough.”
