Anger and Courage.

Anger at the way things are, and courage to see that they do not remain the way they are. -- St. Augustine

That's the problem with hope, it doesn't come alone. Hope brings it's family along. When hope is raised, so are expectations.

We expected change.



Instead they came for our homes, our jobs and our money.


We expected that a new regime would fight for us. Instead, we're finding power in our voice.




We expected that the obvious source of our nation's pain would be brought to account. Instead our accounts were emptied into theirs.




We expected all these things because Hope was exploited.




And so now it's up to Hope's still small children.

Anger.





And Courage.





Our only hope is ourselves.
