“Getting intimate means giving a damn, worrying about what happens to people in our everyday lives. It means attending to their individual needs, perspectives, & interests--by asking the basic questions: who, where, when, why, & how. It means accepting that the answers to these questions may bring an uneasy & jarring level of consciousness to the ways in which we receive, recognize & respond to others & ourselves.”
