Without the communal leadership
set up securely before they start
riots are rarely the rocket boosters
that blast democracy further
that our media tells us they should be.
Riots become the most sharpest way
of addressing the oldest grievances,
but in peacetime the ongoing battle
is always cultural much more
than anything else.
The most powerful campaigns
re-balance civil society from within,
and achieve this without the erasure
of the previous version of history.
The gradualism of these campaigns
means that they are rarely credited
with what they actually achieve.
This is why I'll do what I do,
but I'll never expect the credit
.
