The oppressed, having internalized the image of the oppressor and adopted his guidelines, are fearful of freedom.

Power is the ability to define reality and to have other people respond to your definition as if it were their own. - Dr. Wade Nobles
White kids as young as 19 come into my office with no assets or credit history and request capital, and when I say, "no", to them owing to credit risk, it never seems to discourage them.
