More From Christopher Reeve

Grandmother pointed out my brother perry, my sister sarah, and my sister eliza, who stood in the group. i had never seen my brother nor my sisters before; and, though i had sometimes heard of them, and felt a curious interest in them, i really did not understand what they were to me, or i to them. we were brothers and sisters, but what of that? why should they be attached to me, or i to them? brothers and sisters were by blood; but slavery had made us strangers. i heard the words brother and sisters, and knew they must mean something; but slavery had robbed these terms of their true meaning.

Brothers and sisters, our democracy has been hijacked. brothers and sisters, all electoral freedoms in this country are over so long as it's controlled by corporations. brothers and sisters, we are not going to allow these streets to be taken over by the democrats or the republicans. because it's all of us who have built this city, and we can tear it down unless they give us what we need.

Your eyes are as a flame, but our brothers have neither hope nor fire. your mouth is cut of granite, but our brothers are soft and humble. your head is high, but our brothers cringe. you walk, but our brothers crawl. we wish to be damned with you, rather than blessed with all our brothers. do as you please with us, but do not send us away from you.

I look and there's our boy from vietnam and our daughter from ethiopia, and our girl was born in namibia, and our son is from cambodia, and they're brothers and sisters, man. they're brothers and sisters and it's a sight for elation.

I talk to the young generation and advise them to be both fully muslim and fully western citizens, to be free, to speak out, to express themselves. we have new generations of muslims who were born in the west, coming from within, and they are well educated and they understand. some sisters and brothers are ready, yes, even though i can see young sisters and brothers who are also obsessed with their social status, their titles, their salary and are scared to not be tolerated.

With a basic understanding of all humans as brothers and sisters, we can appreciate the usefulness of different systems and ideologies that can accommodate different individuals and groups with different cultural heritages, having different dispositions and tastes. each person has the right to choose whatever is most suitable, on the basis of a deep understanding of all others as brothers and sisters.
