Quote of the Day

Ta-Nehisi Coates edition:

This isn't a matter of boats and tides. It's a matter of how you see the world, and the tools you embrace to change it. I would submit that it's worth recognizing those moments when the problems of East New York look like the problems of East Kentucky. We were never simply fighting racism. We were fighting injustice. Post-1968, injustice got sophisticated. Why shouldn't we do the same?
