Vandana Shiva
“On a planet with 300 million species and 7 billion humans, one man determining the future is a dangerous idea. It is dangerous for the Earth, because the anthropocentric, reductionist, and mechanistic assumptions by which Gates is guided are at the root of the ecological crisis that has brought us to the brink.”
Vandana Shiva, One Earth, One Humanity vs. the 1%

Paula Gunn Allen
“Indians think it is important to remember, while Americans believe it is important to forget.”
Paula Gunn Allen
