Cornel West: " Hope on a Tightrope"

"...Yet it is easy to fall prey to two illusions: first, the notion that inclusion guarantees higher quality. Second, the idea that entrance, or opening the gates, results in a significant redistribution of cultural benefits. Inclusion makes possible new dialoges, new pespectives, and critical orientations and questions. Yet only discipline, energy, and talent can produce quality." Cornel West
