“I knew as well as I knew anything that the oppressor must be liberated just as surely as the oppressed. A man who takes away another man’s freedom is a prisoner of hatred; he is locked behind the bars of prejudice and narrow-mindedness.

The oppressed and the oppressor alike are robbed of their humanity” - FROM LONG WALK TO FREEDOM, 1994
