White privilege allows a certain kind of leisure that can be deployed by white people of advantage toward our restoration. That's all true and good. But it also suggests that there is an individual approach to the issues that many of these white people have taken up as a recognition of their tie to and responsibility for some of the inequities that exist.

Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.
