Danh ngôn của Michelle Alexander
When we pull back the curtain and take a look at what our 'colorblind' society creates without affirmative action, we see a familiar social, political, and economic structure - the structure of racial caste. The entrance into this new caste system can be found at the prison gate.

Khi chúng ta kéo bức màn lên và nhìn vào những gì xã hội 'mù màu' của chúng ta tạo ra mà không có hành động khẳng định, chúng ta thấy một cấu trúc xã hội, chính trị và kinh tế quen thuộc - cấu trúc của đẳng cấp chủng tộc. Lối vào hệ thống đẳng cấp mới này có thể được tìm thấy ở cổng nhà tù.

Các câu danh ngôn khác của cùng tác giả: Michelle Alexander
- Discrimination in virtually every aspect of political, economic, and social life is now perfectly legal if you've been labeled a felon.
- People have a false understanding of what our legal system is like - how it works/operates - from shows like 'Law and Order,' which suggest that lawyers appear on demand and do a tremendous amount of investigation and background research.
- People return home from prison and face legal discrimination in virtually all areas of social and economic and political life. They are legally discriminated against employment, barred from public housing, and denied other public benefits.
- The fact that our legal system has become so tolerant of police lying indicates how corrupted our criminal justice system has become by declarations of war, 'get tough' mantras, and a seemingly insatiable appetite for locking up and locking out the poorest and darkest among us.
- If there is any hope that we in America might one day overcome our own history of genocide, slavery, discrimination, and oppression and create a justice system that is truly a source of international pride rather than shame, I suspect Rwanda may have as much to teach us about what is required as any tour of a Norwegian prison.

- I would say that no film is apolitical. There are politics in all films. Any film that is anchored in a society, any film that deals with humanity is necessarily political.
- The key to organizing an alternative society is to organize people around what they can do, and more importantly, what they want to do.
- When I say, 'I stand for equal rights,' I mean equal rights for all persons... from the moment of conception until natural death. I mean that I believe in the equal human dignity of all persons, no matter the 'contribution' they make to society.
- Solitude is better than the society of evil persons.
- Bipolar disorder, manic depression, depression, black dog, whatever you want to call it, is inherent in our society. It's a product of stress and in my case over-work.
