Dispossession Quotes
The challenge for Labour is that there's huge support for working class, from mining communities, from northern working class communities for UKIP, which wouldn't be the case if they were a straightforward Thatcherite party. So an ability to engage with the rage and dispossession people feel is absolutely necessary for constructive politics. And how do you build a common good between locals and immigrants? How do you build a common good between north and south, between the small towns and cities? We're not thinking of the levels of abandonment that people feel, and UKIP express that.
Maurice Glasman, Baron Glasman
Love and toothache have many cures, but none infallible, except possession and dispossession.
Benjamin Franklin
(Thanksgiving has) never been about honoring Native Americans. It's been about the origin story of the United States, the beginning of genocide, dispossession and constant warfare from that time-actually, from 1607 in Jamestown-until the present. It's a colonial system that was set up.
Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz
