It’s much, much tougher when you’re a 17 year-old gay boy, part of only 10% or less of the school population and your possible loves are all in hiding, just as you are, due to the fear of being socially ostracized, laughed at, condemned and physically harassed by your peers.

Church is so confusing for Juvenalius. His new pastor preaches nothing but hate and condemnation of gays and lesbians, but no matter how carefully he reads his Bible, he can’t find where it says God hates him. Will things change when Juve's boyfriend Devis suggests that they all go to his church instead?

Quote
Juvenalius has problems... though like most kids on the threshold of sexual awareness he only knows life sucks... he isn't clear about why. His mother rants on and on about the iniquity of his school having a gay straight alliance. She's quite safe about that, as Ryan is too shy to join, or is that scared? His only friend is a dog so the question of boy or girl-friend hardly arises... until he gets a valentine... from the least likely boy in the school.

Quote
Cora had heard Michael recite the Declaration of Independence back on the Randall plantation many times, his voice drifting through the village like an angry phantom. She didn't understand the words, most of them at any rate, but 'created equal' was not lost on her. The white men who wrote it didn't understand it either, if 'all men' did not truly mean all men.

There is no doubt in my mind that the South Sudanese civil war has exposed global hypocrisy in a stunning way — and I am not quite sure if this level of hypocrisy is a Western, African, or Eastern one.

এ-সব দেখে বিশ্ববিধানের 'পরে ধিক্কার জন্মায়' - এ কথা আমরা রবীন্দ্রনাথের মুখেই শুনেছি। আজ বেঁচে থাকলে বাংলাদেশের উপর পৈশাচিক ধ্বংসলীলা ও অগুনতি নরহত্যা (অমলের মতো কত শত শিশুর বুকে বেয়নেট বিঁধিয়ে দেয়া হয়েছে তার হিসাব কে রাখে) দেখে চীন ও মার্কিন সরকারের ওই হত্যাকারী আধুনিক অস্ত্রশস্ত্রে সুসজ্জিত দানবদলকে নির্লজ্জ নির্বিবেক সোল্লাস অস্ত্র-সাহায্যের সংবাদ পেয়ে আবার ওই ধিক্কার তাঁর বেদনাহত বুক থেকে বেরিয়ে আসত।
