“We cannot be content while men in masses are suffering, are hungry, living stunted, aimless lives. It cannot be right that great fortunes have been made, and are being made, in the Colonies, and dividends paid to shareholders in Britain, while men, from whose lands this wealth comes, sweat and live like beasts, and even fight to obtain less than a living wage in the plantations, docks, factories, mines, and even fields of their own land.”
–Walter Miller, as cited in Lamin Sanneh’s Disciples of All Nations (p. 182)
