Baraka/media

Famous quotes containing the words baraka and/or media:

    I am a soul in the world: in
    the world of my soul the whirled
    light from the day
    the sacked land
    of my father.
    —Imamu Amiri Baraka (b. 1934)

    Today the discredit of words is very great. Most of the time the media transmit lies. In the face of an intolerable world, words appear to change very little. State power has become congenitally deaf, which is why—but the editorialists forget it—terrorists are reduced to bombs and hijacking.
    John Berger (b. 1926)
