I ain't afraid to speak my mind

"This project is about freedom. It is about being free to think, act, speak up, and speak out. It is about asking questions, finding answers, and then asking new questions. This project is about honoring ancestors and freedom fighters that made a way out of no way. This project is about you and me working together to ensure that we will never repeat our history, but that we will always strive toward freedom."--Foreword.
