W.E.B. Du Bois
“History is lies agreed upon”
w.e.b Du Bois.

Frantz Fanon
“Fighting for the freedom of one's people is not the only necessity. As long as the fight goes on you must enlighten not only the people but also, and above all, yourself on the full measure of man. You must retrace the paths of history, the history of man damned by other men, and initiate, bring about, the encounter between your own people and others.”
Frantz Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth

Zora Neale Hurston
“Gods always behave like the people who created them.”
Zora Neale Hurston

Frantz Fanon
“The more the people understand, the more watchful they become, and the more they come to realize that finally everything depends on them and their salvation lies in their own cohesion, in the true understanding of their interests, and in knowing who their enemies are. The people come to understand that wealth is not the fruit of labor but the result of organized, protected robbery.”
Frantz Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth

Angela Y. Davis
“I don't think we have any alternative other than remaining optimistic. Optimism is an absolute necessity, even if it's only optimism of the will, as Gramsci said, and pessimism of the intellect.”
Angela Y. Davis, Freedom is a Constant Struggle: Ferguson, Palestine and the Foundations of a Movement
