“Our common stories of oppression should unite us much more than our fears of each other can ever separate us.  My high school classmates and I feared something because we were told to.  Fears download themselves through generations, not always in explicit ways.  Our parents may not always be directly telling us who we can and can’t love, or who we can and can’t accept in our lives.  More often, such messages are unspoken, and never updated.” ~ Humble the Poet, Things No One Else Can Teach Us (Page 163)
