Lou Lubie
“Pour sa génération, réussir, ça voulait dire épouser un zoreil, parler français, partir en métropole... Les inégalités de la colonisation ne sont pas tout à fait effacées.”
Lou Lubie, Racines

“That racism still exists is taken as evidence of the failure of the liberal project, but of course nobody has made the case that it has been eradicated. If a disease is cured but a few symptoms linger, one does not claim that the treatment was ineffective. Social liberalism is an ongoing process because it recognizes the imperfectability of human nature.”
Andrew Doyle, The New Puritans: How the Religion of Social Justice Captured the Western World
