Quote of the Quarter
“A truly free society must not include a "peace" which oppresses us. We must learn on our own terms what peace and freedom mean together. There can be no peace if there is social injustice and suppression of human rights, because external and internal peace are inseparable. Peace is not just the absence of mass destruction, but a positive internal and external condition in which people are free so that they can grow to their full potential.” - Petra Karin Kelly
Petra Karin Kelly (1947-1992) was a German activist and politician best known for founding Die Grünen, or the German Green Party, which was the first prominent Green Party in the world. She devoted her life and work to furthering ecological ideals, social justice, and human rights.Editor
