“Always thing 10 steps ahead of your actions”

“It takes a strong person to say sorry, and an ever stronger person to forgive.”

“Liberalism is the ideology at the center of conservative arguments against affirmative action and equal opportunity. By proposing that, all things being equal, everyone has the same opportunity to compete in the U.S. marketplace, success is determined by how hard someone works and not by their economic class, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, or race. Ethnic and racial identities are to be assimilated, lost, and erased through the celebrated "melting pot" of U.S. culture. Liberalism thus devalues the importance of communitarian experiences and social identities as determinants or barriers to individual success. Instead, it proposes that all individuals are fundamentally equal and that, regardless of their social identity, everyone can control his or her fate through hard work, learned skills, and acquired education- the foundational myth of a U.S. meritocracy.”

“I want to be an aggressive player;One who always find joy in every move.”

“Almost 48 percent of those who identified as Hispanic or Latina/o categorized themselves as white, even though many do not meet the dominant racial phenotypic notion of U.S. whiteness.”
