Description: How was I radicalized? I was radicalized by the concept of militant decency. The idea that you can look at the flaws of this world, the injustices, inequalities, casual cruelties, and allow yourself to become angry. And then use that energy to do the right thing. To right the wrongs so the world is a better place for everyone. Exemplified by Terry Pratchett in his Discworld stories.
Description: W. E. B. Du Bois quote: How shall Integrity face Oppression? What shall Honesty do in the face of Deception, Decency in the face of Insult, Self-Defense before Blows? How shall Desert and Accomplishment meet Despising, Detraction, and Lies? What shall Virtue do to meet Brute Force? There are so many answers and so contradictory; and such differences for those on the one hand who meet questions similar to this once a year or once a decade, and those who face them hourly and daily.
