“I have had stalkers over the years. The police deal with it but it is very scary. One man kept turning up where we filmed 'Countdown in Leeds,' which was scary. It was sad as he'd been sectioned and thought I was talking to him through the TV.” MenYearsDealsTalkingTvsPoliceScaryOne ManLeedsTalking To HimCountdown Author:Carol Vorderman
“Our legal system, including the police, is anti-Dalit and anti-poor. The death penalty laws' wrathful majesty, in blood-shot equality, deals the fatal blow on the poor not the rich, the pariah not the brahmin, the black not the white, the underdog not the top dog, the dissenter not the conformist. . . The law barks at all but bites only the poor, the powerless, the illiterate, the ignorant.” LawBlackWhitePoorDealsRichBloodDogShotsPoliceIncludingBlowIgnorantBitesPenaltiesPowerlessMajestyDeath PenaltyBarkUnderdogIlliterateLegal SystemConformistPariahsBrahmins Author:V.

“We're historians and above all want to write about what was. Our book doesn't deal with legacies. It also wasn't our goal to destroy a legend. We consider Walesa to be a national symbol. He led Solidarity and remains an icon. But he also worked with the secret police under the name Bolek. The truth isn't always simply black and white.” WantWritingBookNamesGoalBlackWhiteDealsSecretTruth IsPoliceRemainsSymbolsLegacyHistorianLegendsBlack And WhiteSolidarityIconsSecret Police Author:Slawomir Cenckiewicz
“The civil rights movement didn't deal with the issue of political disenfranchisement in the Northern cities. It didn't deal with the issues that were happening in places like Detroit, where there was a deep process of deindustrialization going on. So you have this response of angry young people, with a war going on in Vietnam, a poverty program that was insufficient, and police brutality. All these things gave rise to the black power movement. The black power movement was not a separation from the civil rights movement, but a continuation of this whole process of democratization.” PeopleWarWholeYoungPoliticalProcessBlackDealsCitiesPovertyIssuesRightsMovementHappeningsProgramPoliceAngryResponseSeparationCivil RightsVietnamPolice BrutalityBrutalityCivil Rights MovementDetroitInsufficientContinuumDemocratizationBlack PowerDisenfranchisement Author:Danny Glover
