Something IV

"You go to fight to make it [freedom] mean something," Solly Two Kings says in August Wilson’s play Gem of the Ocean. "All it mean is you got a long row to hoe and ain’t got no plow. Ain’t got no seed. Ain’t got no mule. What good is freedom if you can’t do nothing with it?"
--Quoted in Chris Hedges & Joe Sacco, "Days Of Destruction, Days Of Revolt", p. 64
