Fight the Power


"By submitting to huge hierarchies of power, we gain freedom from personal responsibility... Refuse to participate in this evil; insist on taking part in what is healthy, generous, and responsible.

“Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” - Lord Acton

“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” - Martin Luther King Jr.

“Integrity is doing the right thing, even when no one is watching.” - C.S. Lewis
