Freedom Writers
Some people lead the way into the battles for freedom with oratorical or organizing skills; others use charisma and courage to inspire and show the way. Less visible, while in plain sight, are the writers who attack the ideological barriers to freedom, articulating the grounds for the defiance that follows. These voices of the human spirit are what I will call the Freedom Writers.
Margaret Atwood
James Baldwin
