“The problem is that White students tend to have far too few windows and far too many mirrors. What’s more, even the mirrors White students have, like funhouse mirrors, often provide them with a distorted view of themselves in relationship with others.”

“William Lloyd Garrison said, in response to questions about his fiery approach to abolitionism, that “I have a need to be all on fire, for I have mountains of ice about me to melt” (Mayer 1998).”

It takes some strength of soul--and not just individual strength, but collective understanding--to resist this void, this non-being, into which you are thrust, and to stand up, demanding to be seen and heard.”
