lyrics

Instrumental; no lyrics.
Sampled dialogue from Arundhati Roy (2010 interview with CNN-IBN, available at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYW_-xAKD5s):

"[N]on-violence, and particularly, Gandhian non-violence in some ways needs an audience. It’s a theatre that needs an audience. ... How are the hungry to go on a hunger strike? How are the people with no money to boycott taxes or foreign goods or do consumer boycotts?"

"Because I think it suits the status-quo to have everybody saying… this is terrible and all. So just let’s just keep on without taking it into account the terrible structural violence. ... [A]ny responsible person has to say that the violence will stop when you stop pushing those people."

"It’s a terrible thing to do to any society. I don’t think that there is any romance in it. However, I’m not against romance. I do feel it’s incredible that these poor people are standing up against this mighty state."
