"But the change will come only when we have slammed the system up against the wall and stared it down, and made it responsive to us. It is not unpatriotic to criticize one's country. It is essential. I think of the wife of a drunk who covers, apologize and makes excuses for him because she loves him too much, and thereby enables him to continue in his oppression and destruction. In the same way, we must stop enabling our system to continue its injustices because, we too, love it so unconditionally that we fail to demand it reform, that is, be responsible." -
