"Silence must be abolished because silence feeds racism and sexism.
Silence is a bigoted society. We must open the lines of communication within our own households and bring up topics that perhaps make us feel uncomfortable.
There must be an open line of communication among the many organizations and authorities."
"We cannot afford to remain silent because history has taught us that by taking a stand and making our voices heard while working together for a common purpose, we are able to bring change."
