" If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor "

Archbishop Desmond Tutu

Found in the article: "Tutu’s Torch" - WalkingWithTheAlligators

"If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality." - Tutu http://www.searchquotes.com

Incredibly wise words. Silence is collusion when injustice is visible.

Indeed Vijay, I appreciate your quote!

----------

Yes, how many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky ?
Yes, how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry ?
Yes, how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died ?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
-Bob Dylan

Not choosing is a choice. [smiley:;)]

What is there to say, but that that is a very well chosen quote for the times we're living in. I increasingly suspect our collective apathy might be manufactured.

Manufactured Apathy - an unregulated industry. [smiley:;)]
