But only if we allow ourselves to be changed by this Great Change. #TogetherWeRise

"People say with pride, 'I’m not interested in politics.'

They may as well say, 'I’m not interested in my standard of living, my health, job, rights, freedoms, future.' If we mean to keep control over our world and lives, we must be interested in politics."

— Martha Gellhorn
