Safety lies in catering to the in-group. we are not all brave. all i would ask of writers who find it hard to question the universal validity of their personal opinions and affiliations is that they consider this: every group we belong to - by gender, sex, race, religion, age - is an in-group, surrounded by an immense out-group, living next door and all over the world, who will be alive as far into the future as humanity has a future. that out-group is called other people. it is for them that we write.

All rights are individual. we do not get our rights because we belong to a group. whether it's homosexuals, women, minorities, it leads us astray. you don't get your rights belonging to your group. a group can't force themselves on anybody else. so there should be no affirmative action for any group.

Well, nigeria has played a constructive role in peacekeeping in various parts of west africa. but unless and until nigeria itself is democratic and respects human rights, it too may well be a source of much greater instability as political repression limits the ability of the people of nigeria to achieve their full potential.

I have fought against the people of the north because i believed they were seeking to wrest from the south dearest rights. but i have never cherished toward them bitter or vindictive feelings. and have never seen the day when i did not pray for them.

Where, after all, do universal human rights begin? in small places, close to home - so close and so small that they cannot be seen on any maps of the world. yet they are the world of the individual person...withou t concerted citizen action to uphold them close to home, we shall look in vain for progress in the larger world.
