Famous quotes containing the words brand and/or loyalty:
“Obligation may be stretched till it is no better than a brand of slavery stamped on us when we were too young to know its meaning.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“Few white citizens are acquainted with blacks other than those projected by the media and the so—called educational system, which is nothing more than a system of rewards and punishments based upon one’s ability to pledge loyalty oaths to Anglo culture. The media and the “educational system” are the prime sources of racism in the United States.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
