Equality is the heart and essence of democracy, freedom, and justice, equality of opportunity in industry, in labor unions, schools and colleges, government, politics, and before the law. there must be no dual standards of justice, no dual rights, privileges, duties, or responsibilities of citizenship. no dual forms of freedom.

Regret Long Choices
