James | 3 comments This article in the Los Angeles Review of Books connects Weil to Albert Camus and both of them to the idea that to fight injustice, you have to not dehumanize the oppressor (the oppressor and you are part of a "natural community"). I recently finished reading The Autobiography of Martin Luther King, Jr., in which King expressed a similar idea, which he put into practice in his part of the civil rights movement.
