Community Recreation Center

Famous quotes containing the words community, recreation and/or center:

    Media mystifications should not obfuscate a simple, perceivable fact; Black teenage girls do not create poverty by having babies. Quite the contrary, they have babies at such a young age precisely because they are poor—because they do not have the opportunity to acquire an education, because meaningful, well-paying jobs and creative forms of recreation are not accessible to them ... because safe, effective forms of contraception are not available to them.
    Angela Davis (b. 1944)

    This is a strange little complacent country, in many ways a U.S.A. in miniature but of course nearer the center of disturbance!
    Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
