Skulden

"That is what we yell back at history, always, always. It wasn't just me /.../ I walked across Africa with my wrists unshackled, and now I am one more soul walking free in a white skin, wearing some of the stolen goods: cotton or diamonds, freedom at the very least, prosperity. Some of us know how we came by our fortune, and some of us don't, but we wear it all the same. There's only one question worth asking now: How do we aim to live with it?"

Barbara Kingsolver
