Quotes:

“A multiethnic democracy in which no particular ethnic group is in the majority”

The simple fact of the matter is that the world has never built a multiethnic democracy in which no particular ethnic group is in the majority and where political equality, social equality and economies that empower all have been achieved. We are engaged in a fight over whether to work together to build such a world.

13 Aug 2017 from the essay “Charlottesville is not the continuation of an old fight. It is something new.”
