We hold these truths to be self evident, that ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL. This means EVERYONE! When the Law only protects the rich from the poor, or the majority from the minority, there is no justice. It's just us.

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.
