Ystok Ghetto Uprising

Famous quotes containing the words ghetto and/or uprising:

“We do not need to minimize the poverty of the ghetto or the suffering inflicted by whites on blacks in order to see that the increasingly dangerous and unpredictable conditions of middle- class life have given rise to similar strategies for survival. Indeed the attraction of black culture for disaffected whites suggests that black culture now speaks to a general condition.”
—Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)

“Whoever thinks of stopping the uprising before it achieves its goals, I will give him ten bullets in the chest.”
—Yasir Arafat (b. 1929)
