Derek Taylor: On Civil Rights

That is the apparent contradiction we face as we continue this struggle for the civil rights of our fellow New Yorkers and our fellow Americans. On the one hand, to hate this system, our system enough to fight it but on the other hand, to love it enough, love it enough to think it's worth fighting for. Nothing else will do for us but this profoundly Christian habit of defeating a contradiction by fully embracing both sides of it. — Derek Taylor, software engineer and 2nd amendment champion
