"What we are living in…and some of us are suffering through…is the mess that results from decades of avoiding the issues of race, class and gender by embracing the school of tolerance rather than engaging in the hard work of social justice.

"...Enlightenment isn’t something we can speak into reality anymore than bigotry is something we can simply declare to be history."
