Kaveh Akbar: «What will you do? Not the royal you, but you specifically? […]
I want to tell you powerlessness is an alibi. Hopelessness too. I want to ask, what specifically are you going to do? Tomorrow, the next day? What’s your “I am Spartacus” move to protect the more vulnerable, the targeted, the invisibled, the next-on-the-list?
I want to say, it’s your turn now, help. This is us asking you while we still can.»
