James Baldwin was an absolute badass.

I mean, it does take time... but it also takes a great deal of effort and will. We've been sadly lacking in those up til now. Its not about sitting back and waiting for change to happen, its about standing up and doing something to affect change.

to add to this: it also takes perpetual acts of reaching out to people and educators to make them aware of reality and provide the means of education so that society doesn't get stuck into the headspace we're currently experiencing w the revival of the regressive and reactionary ideals.
