"I haven't seen much of this world, but from what I've seen social justice is an adolescent term. Sounds almost liberal... What's got me shaken up is the people struggle and it's got me shaken up bad." -Disco Elysium

"Let's remember that the "system" is led by individuals, by a relatively small number of people, who hav names, with more money than god and certainly less compassion." -Robin Wall Kimmerer, The Serviceberry #booksky

"If we think of the Earth as a big warehouse of commodities, as mere objects, we claim a kind of privilege to exploit what we believe that we own...how we consume doesn't really matter because it's just stuff and the stuff all belongs to us. There is no moral constraint on consumption." #booksky

"We don't each have to own everything. The books at the library belong to everyone, serving the public with free books... Take the books, enjoy them, bring them back so someone else can enjoy them, with literacy and abundance for all." -Robin Wall Kimmerer, The Serviceberry #booksky

"When the natural world is understood as a gift instead of private property, there are ethical constraints on the accumulation of abundance that is not yours to own. Gifts are not meant to be hoarded, and this made scarce for others, but given away, which generated sufficiency for all." #Booksky

"In a gift economy, wealth is understood as having enough to share, and the practice for dealing with abundance is to give it away. In fact, status is determined not by how much one accumulates, but by how much one gives away." -Robin Wall Kimmerer, The Serviceberry

"Witness marks...do not exist on machine-stamped wares. And attest to the uniqueness of human creations. No two brush-strokes or chisel-strikes ever the same." -Michael Finkel, The Art Thief #booksky #FuckAI

"Recognizing enoughness is a radical act In an economy that is always urging us to consume more." -Robin Wall Kimmerer, The Serviceberry

"Why then, have we permitted the dominance of economic systems that commoditize everything? That create scarcity instead of abundance. That promote accumulation, rather than sharing. We have surrendered our values to an economic system that is actively harming what we love." #booksky

"When something moves from the status of "gift" to the status of "commodity", we can become detached from mutual responsibility. We know the consequences of that detachment. Why then, have we permitted the dominance of economic systems that commoditize everything?" -Robin Wall Kimmerer

"It wasn't a single individual or two who created [the Montgomery Bus Boycott] movement, that, as a matter of fact, it was largely women within collective contexts, Black women, poor black women who were maids, washerwomen, and cooks. These were the people who collectively refused to ride the bus."

"One of the most hidden areas of US history is the period of Radical Reconstruction... There was black elected officials. Then we had to wait more than another century to get them back...People in this country are still unaware of the fact that former slaves brought public education to the South."

"We also question whether incarcerating individual perpetrators does anything more than reproduce the very violence that perpetrators have allegedly committed. In other words criminalization allows the problem to persist." -Angela Davis, Freedom is a Constant Struggle

"Feminism involves so much more than gender equality...Feminism insists on methods of thought and action that urge us to think about things together that appear to be separate, and to disaggregate things that appear to naturally belong together." -Angela Davis, Freedom is a Constant Struggle

"Don't even become too attached to the concept of gender... The more closely we examine it, the more that we discover that it is embedded in a range of social, political, cultural, and ideological formations. It is not one thing." -Angela Davis, Freedom is a Constant Struggle
