"I hold a vision requiring a radical transformation of consciousness in this country, that as the people-of-color population increases, we will not be just another brown faceless mass hungrily awaiting integreation into white Amerika, but that we will emerge as a mass movement of people to redefine what an 'American' is." --cherrie moraga "The last generation"
