"If you stick a knife in my back 9 inches and pull it out 6 inches, there is no progress. If you pull it all the way out, there is no progress. The progress is healing the wound that the knife caused. They haven't even begin to pull the knife out much less heal the wound. They won't even admit that the knife exists."  -Malcolm X
