“Oppression costs the oppressor too much if the oppressed stands up and protests. The protest need not be merely physical-the throwing of stones and bullets-if it is mental, spiritual; if it expresses itself in silent, persistent dissatisfaction, the cost to the oppressor is terrific.”
“How shall Integrity face Oppression?”
“We shall never secure emancipation from the tyranny of the white oppressor until we have achieved it in our own souls.”
