June Jordan Quotes

It Would Be Something Fine If We Could Learn How To Bless The Lives Of Children. They Are The People Of New Life. Children Are The Only People Nobody Can Blame. They Are The Only Ones Always Willing To Make A Start; They Have No Choice. Children Are The Ways The World Begin Again And Again.
"But In General, Our Children Have No Voice
that We Will Listen To. We Force, We Blank Them Into The Bugle/bell Regulated Lineup Of The Army/school, And We Insist On Silence.
"But Even If We Cannot Learn To Bless Their Lives (our Future Times), At Least We Can Try To Find Out How We Already Curse And Burden Their Experience: How We Limit The Wheeling Of Their Inner Eyes, How We Terrify Their Trust, And How We Condemn The Raucous Laughter Of Their Natural Love. What's More, If We Will Hear Them, They Will Teach Us What They Need; They Will Bluntly Formulate The Tenderness Of Their Deserving.
