If we don’t have hope, we have nothing. No praxis. Angela Davis - TopicsExpress



          

If we don’t have hope, we have nothing. No praxis. Angela Davis has spoken on this topic many times before. About how those who discuss the world as a perpetually stagnant place and throw their hands in defeat are counteractive to any revolutionary thought. One of her most relevant quotes. You have to act as if it were possible to radically transform the world. And you have to do it all the time. Do I have faith in the system? Absolutely not. But I do have faith in the resilience of my people and all oppressed people by Empire, whether we’re talking Pakistan, Mexico, the Congo, Somalia, Palestine, Iraq and beyond. I have faith in the abundance in domestic and transnational solidarity, coalition building and activism that comes from tragedies and injustice. And yes, these are the positives amongst humanity which you collectively condemn.
