"He fell in with the quiet revolutionaries on campus-those who felt that the disenfranchisement of half the population was ridiculous, those who did not accept that rights were predicated on skin tone-partly because he couldn't bring himself to avoid tempting trouble. He agreed with all their points, but understood that they were freer to make them purely because they had the money to build a wall around their experiences. That was what people did, wasn't it? Ignore the majority of experience and actively disengage from those telling them otherwise."
