“When your fight has purposeâ€”to free you from something, to interfere on the behalf of an innocentâ€”it has a hope of finality. When the fight is about unravelingâ€”when it is about your name, the places to which your blood is anchored, the attachment of your name to some landmark or eventâ€”there is nothing but hate, and the long, slow progression of people who feed on it and are fed it, meticulously, by the ones who come before them. Then the fight is endless, and comes in waves and waves, but always retains its capacity to surprise those who hope against it.”
