"Any battle for freedom past, or present had enormous risks involved."
~Onkar Ghate
"What we are trying to do, is bring a moral dimension to policy and political issues. Our focus is on the positive.
We are about the issue of "Justice" for a group or class of people that have never been acknowledged as good or moral. A focus on justice requires both what is bad, evil that has to be opposed, to achieve justice you have to focus on this. Then a positive of what you advocate for and look up to.
Most major causes in history seemed discouraging.
- The Revolution and Declaring Independence
- The Abolitionist
- Slavery
- Women's Suffrage
- Civil Rights
- Gay Pride
- Businessmen
All of these at the outset looked like hopeless causes. They were subject to injustice and declared they would not put up with it anymore. Would not accept this anymore. We have to much self-esteem to put up with it. We demand something better and this is what a fight for freedom looks like.
We are trying to get the better people in the world to understand and what is needed to fight injustice. In order to combat this you need to stand up and name the injustice and frame it in a positive. There is a major element of what is needed in fighting injustice and that is naming the injustice in the context of a positive.
This is what a fight for freedom and liberty would be. Demand Freedom, Justice and Civil Rights. If you make that kind of stand it is possible to succeed." ~ Onkar Ghate
