My family has very strong ...

My family has very strong women. My mother never laughed at my dream of Africa, even though everyone else did because we didn\'t have any money, because Africa was the \'dark continent\', and because I was a girl.

Quotes from the same author

So long as we continued to attach more importance to our own narrow group membership than to the 'global village' we would propagate prejudice and ignorance. There was absolutely no harm in being part of a small group - indeed, with our hunter-gatherer band mentality it gave comfort, provided us with an inner circle of friends who could be utterly trusted, who were absolutely reliable. It helped give us peace of mind. The danger came only from drawing that sharp line, digging that ditch, laying that minefield, between our own group and any other group that thought differently.
