Sixty Years On ~ What On Earth Has Happened Within the Mindset of the Greater American People?
“Each time a man stands up for an ideal,
or acts to improve the lot of others,
or strikes out against injustice,
he sends for a tiny ripple of Hope,
and crossing each other from a million
different centres of energy and daring,
those ripples build a current that can
sweep down the mightiest walls of
oppression and resistance.”
