Albert Camus
“In the world there is, parallel to the force of death and constraint, an enormous force of persuasion that is called culture.”
Albert Camus, Notebooks 1951-1959

Sara Niles
“It was nineteen fifty seven, the Little Rock nine were escorted to school by Federal troops under the order of President Eisenhower to counteract the attempt of Arkansas Governor Faubus to prevent it. Southern racial tensions produced a supreme irony: Federal troops against the National Guard. This visible strife between state and nation was one of the evidences of the racial turmoil of the times”
Sara Niles, Torn From The Inside Out
