Gil Caldwell: 

"It is my hope that in this time we will be so enlightened that despite the obvious differences among them we will see the connections between racism, sexism, heterosexism, militarism, classism and imperialism and then decide, declare and demonstrate that none of them have a place in the 21^st century."
