Understands:
Anyone who terrorizes us
Is a terrorist;
Anyone who steals from us
Is a thief;
Anyone who loves
Has won.
"Winning" by Alice Walker
She loved (& she is loved by us) . . .
farrokh azad / April 29, 2010 8:29 PMAnd to add to Alice Walker's little poem":
Anyone who takes our rights away
Is a dictator
Anyone who rapes us
Is a rapist
Anyone who shoots at us
Is a murderer
Anyone who does all these in the name of god...
