I'd like to include a quote which I included as the last passage of my final paper for the Kenya program. What Shivji says is true, "An alternative world IS possible."
Let's make it happen!
“We have to choose sides: the side of those who are struggling for a better world and against those who want to maintain the existing one. We simply cannot be neutral . . . It is struggling for an alternative world, a better world, which has changed the past and will continue to change the present for a better future. We, the activists . . . must continue to fight for a better world.
An alternative world is possible.”
