Skammentary: When I shared The Interrupters with *REDACTED*, one of his complaints was their earnestness.
"I wanna know:
When it's dark as a dungeon, can you be a light?
Can you bring peace in the middle of a fight?
When you see separation, can you unite?
When you 'em doing wrong, can you do what's right?
"From the bottom of our hearts
To the top of our lungs
We're crying out for unity
And the battle's just begun!
Let love be your foundation,
Let wisdom be your guide,
'Til the problems that we're facing
Can no longer divide a broken world!…
"I wanna know:
If your enemy was drowning, would you pull him to shore?
If a stranger was starving, would you open your door?
Are there any revolutionaries here anymore?
And what you gonna be remembered for?…"
