“Every milestone of civilization--the end of slavery, democracy, equal rights for men and women--these were all Utopian fantasies once, until they happened. That's why I think that history is actually the most subversive discipline of all the social sciences, because history shows us that things can be different, they don't have to be this way, we can change them.”
“Be aware of the negative, focus on the positive,
take courage and Be the change.”
“Human I stand, from the river to the sea, I won't let no wildlife normalize inhumanity.”

backbone oughta spark thunder.
If you feel nothing at all,
file for a bankrupt character.”

ever wonder what you are!
Far past the freeze and hate,
lever of love, you're world lifter.”

“Naskar not Nascar (The Sonnet)
Naskar is an alter ego,
Naskar is a calling,
a madness bigger than sanity,
not chained to one being.
Even Abi is no match for Naskar,
Abi will perish, not Naskar.
Naskar is a chemical catastrophe,
priming humans as kind thunder.
Naskar is factory of humanitarians,
imbued with wonders against malice.
Muscle up your heart, heart up your brain,
uncontaminated by leanings of prejudice.
Nascar is a race, Naskar is a journey,
voyage of sapiens ushering in humanity.
Surpassing constraints of bigotry,
Naskar is Manifest Humanity.”

“Devise a plan for subsequent action once change has come about that includes organizing, education, protesting, lobbying, passing legislation, informing the people about the change, teaching them how to make beneficial use of the change, and providing for the resistant reaction to your work.”
