Jimmy Santiago Baca quotes

The white kids are being conditioned to feel superior-so you can't attack the whites, you have to attack the system. But we have to attack with loving ourselves first. If we don't love more, we ain't revolutionizing nothin'. People who love themselves won't tolerate deception; they won't tolerate oppression... (Jimmy Santiago Baca)
