## Pangea Day announcement at TED Awards

* Let's get to what I really would like, which is world peace. And, I know what you're thinking — you're thinking "that poor girl up there, she thinks she's at a beauty pageant, she's not, she's at the TED prize"… but I really do think it makes sense. And the first step to world peace is for people to meet each other.
** Jehane Noujaim, "Jehane Noujaim Unveils Pangea Day"

## Quotes about Pangea Day

* In this age images are powerful. Powerful enough to divide, to spread fear, to remove hope. Powerful enough to unite, to build trust, to inspire action. Until now images of the many have been held in the hands of the few. Finally that is changing. Millions of people around the world are telling their own stories. For the first time in history we have the chance to see the world differently, to see it through the eyes of the other.
** "Can Your Film Change the World?" - Pangea Day promo video at YouTube
* A project like Pangea, which enables us to enter in to the situations of others, imaginatively, is fulfilling what the religions call the Golden Rule... going into one's own experience, and going into other's experience, and seeing the world from another perspective — that's what we desperately need in our dangerously polarized world.
** Karen Armstrong in "Karen Armstrong Joins Pangea Day!"
* We need to understand each other better — because we all share the same planet — and we only have one of them.
** Cameron Diaz in ""Cameron Diaz Joins Pangea Day!"
* I wish to bring the world together for one day a year through the power of film.
** Jehane Noujaim at "Jehane Noujaim's wish" at the official TED site
* I am doing this because it is a great idea — to realize the language of film is so beautiful, and very personal — the most beautiful films of all are made from the heart the soul and beyond — and that is why I want to be a part of Pangea...
** Robin Williams, in "Robin Williams Joins Pangea Day!"

## Quotes

* Is it then wise that we should throw open our citizenship so indiscriminately? I do not side any ground whatsoever that we should do it, unless it is the specious, oft repeated and nauseating principle of ‘secularity’ of the state. I think we are going too far in this business of secularity. Does it mean that we must wipe out our own people that we must wipe them out in order to prove our secularity, that we must wipe out Hindus and Sikhs under the name of secularity, that we must undermine everything that is sacred and dear to the Indians to prove that we are secular? ... I am sure the popularity of those who take that view will not last long in India.

## Quotes

## Quotes

* Music is an extremely big theme and an artistic discipline in its own right. It is, therefore, an intricate undertaking to cross-pollinate literature and music in a way that avoids navel-gazing and cliches. I think it does – and should – take some time to distill the personality and temperament of a musician in fiction, more so in character-driven narratives like Illumination
** Nthikeng Mohlele speaks on music relating to his book illumination
* ‘"The beauty of Johannesburg is not immediate. Neither is it only visual. It is an aesthetic that resists being the beauty only of place, of the physical, buildings and bridges and skylines, tree-lined streets and crimson cloud-dotted horizons; it is a beauty that is heard as much as it is felt.
** Speaking on the beauty of Johannesburg, South Africa
* I have thought about the many faces you wear in a lifetime. For, even if it’s a known face, with improvements and deformities it might encounter in its life journey, it is not the same face, not the same expressions mark such a face, for faces have mastered countless masks and counter masks, pointed revelations in front of prosecutors, clergymen, rivals, would- be assassins, former lovers, sexual superiors, law-enforcers, photographers, admired grandparents or the babbling babies of strangers.
** Speaking on the numerous face a man wears in his lifetime
* ‘"I was born into a musical family, musicians to whom I was bonded either by blood or by a musical brotherhood. I have been dazzled by lyrics that make hearts flutter, by piano solos that seem to hang in the air deep into the night, long after the performances were concluded.

# The Paper Chase (TV series)

The Paper Chase (1978–1979) was a one-hour drama series directed by James Bridges. The show was based on the 1973 movie which, in turn, had been based on the 1970 novel written by John Jay Osborn. The book tells the story of an idealistic first-year law student from rural Minnesota attending an unnamed New England law school, clearly reminiscent of Harvard, and his experiences with the brilliant, demanding professor of contract law whom he both idolizes and finds intimidating.

## Season One
### Opening credits

    Professor Kingsfield: The study of law is something new and unfamiliar to most of you -- unlike any other schooling you've ever known before. You teach yourselves the law, but I train your minds. You come in here with a skull full of mush, and, if you survive, you leave thinking like a lawyer.

## Quotes

* Traditional Muslim women's head, face, or body covering, of numerous varieties across time and space, often referred to as the “veil.” Hijab is a symbol of modesty, privacy, and morality. The practice was borrowed from elite women of the Byzantine, Greek, and Persian empires, where it was a sign of respectability and high status, during the Arab conquests of these empires. It gradually spread among urban populations, becoming more pervasive under Turkish rule as a mark of rank and exclusive lifestyle. Hijab became a central topic of feminist/nationalist discourse during the nineteenth-century British colonial occupation of Egypt. Western feminists view hijab as a symbol of the subordination and inferiority of women in Islam. Since the 1970s it has emerged as a symbol of Islamic consciousness and the voluntary and active participation of young women in the Islamist movement, a symbol of public modesty that reaffirms Islamic identity and morality and rejects Western materialism, commercialism, and values. In the 1980s hijab became an assertion of Islamic nationalism and resistance to Western culture.
** "Hijab.", edited by John Esposito, Oxford University Press: 2003.
* In Islam, men and women are moral equals in God's sight and are expected to fulfill the same duties of worship, prayer, faith, almsgiving, fasting, and pilgrimage to Mecca. Islam generally improved the status of women compared to earlier Arab cultures, prohibiting female infanticide and recognizing women's full personhood. Islamic law emphasizes the contractual nature of marriage, requiring that a dowry be paid to the woman rather than to her family, and guaranteeing women's rights of inheritance and to own and manage property. Women were also granted the right to live in the matrimonial home and receive financial maintainance during marriage and a waiting period following death and divorce.

## Quotes

* Bridge the gap with and extend the olive branch to people from past generations, because you don’t know everything.
** On one of the advice she’d give to younger women in “Interview: Raquel Cepeda On Identity, Race & Hip-Hop” in Vice (2016 Mar 16)
* The way we construct race in the States is so different from the way people construct race all across Latin America and the Caribbean. All of a sudden you come to the States and race is foisted upon you. Then my generation’s like, “Wait a minute, where do my ancestors come from?...
** On how race is perceived in the United States in “Becoming Latina: An Interview with Raquel Cepeda” in Hazlitt (2013 Jun 26)
* Sometimes I’ll bring that up and people will say, “Well, you can’t find a true Indian on the Dominican Republic,” and I’m like, “You can’t find a true anything.” What is it about us suppressing this part of ourselves and highlighting this other part of ourselves? I think all that leads to bad self-esteem, which has a ripple effect on society.
** On the relationship between race and memory in “Becoming Latina: An Interview with Raquel Cepeda” in Hazlitt (2013 Jun 26)
* My sense of self and my identity have been enhanced more than they’ve changed. I’m still Latina-American for the purposes of living here in the States. Sometimes I say I’m Dominican, or Dominican-American, depending on who I’m talking to; the codewords change depending on the community you’re engaging with. But for me, it was a very spiritual journey. It married the logos, the rational, the science, with the mythos, the spiritual.
** On how her definition of ethnicity and racial identity have changed over the years in “Becoming Latina: An Interview with Raquel Cepeda” in Hazlitt (2013 Jun 26)

## Quotes

* Unfortunately systemic racism seems to ripple through our social institutions and into our daily social interactions, whether in Congress or at a coffee shop down the street from the Capitol. [...] Systemically, we know that Black people compared to whites are more likely to attend schools with less funding per student, less likely to obtain a job because of our “Black-sounding” name or even when attending an Ivy League university, less likely to obtain a home loan (even when having the same credit score), have their homes appraised for equitable value, more likely to experience pregnancy complications and maternal mortality, and more likely to have contact with police and the criminal justice system. Systemic racism inhibits (rather than prohibits like in the past) people’s ability to actualize all aspects of the American Dream. This occurs even for highly-educated Black people with high incomes and no criminal record. In fact, research documents that white people with a criminal record are more likely to get called back for a job than Black people without one.
** Is the United States a racist country?. Brookings (4 May 2021).
* Systemic racism is not simply a thing of the past. It is up close and personal in the present. Racism may be no more transparent in an institution with the least representative racial progress like the Senate. There have only been 11 Black senators in roughly 232 years. Clearly, the Senate is the exact space we need people with the courage to say the blunt, honest truth about our nation’s past and present. Only then can we actualize a future where systemic racism does not exist. It is imperative for a truth, reconciliation, and reparative process to commence. This starts with atoning for the enslavement of millions of Africans whose descendants continuously fall systemically behind, whether they end up being the lone Black Republican senator or a Black police officer who might have the power to pull him over. We must have the courage to speak truth to power and one of the places it starts is in Congress. “If not now, then when?”

# Raquel Welch

Raquel Welch (born Jo Raquel Tejada; September 5, 1940 – February 15, 2023) was an American actress and singer.

## Quotes

* Whatever my film work was, it was a departure from the sex symbol previously, who was blonde and more docile than the characters I portrayed as a sex symbol…I think it was a different role for women. Women watch other women, and they are affected by that.
** On how she felt that her early roles were a form of liberation in “Body of Work: Screen Siren Raquel Welch Gets Her Lincoln Center Retrospective” in The Observer (New York, February 7, 2012)
* A lot of times I would play a lot of roles a man would play…In One Million Years B.C.—yes, the costume was revealing. But I was outdoors all the time, I was fighting to survive, there was a girlfight. I was participating, it was physical, and I was independent. I wasn’t that pushover kind of a girl. And I think that left an impression.
** On how she felt her roles were masculine in “Body of Work: Screen Siren Raquel Welch Gets Her Lincoln Center Retrospective” in The Observer (New York, February 7, 2012)
* It’s not that I wanted to go into the male mentality, but into the duality. There’s a duality in every man and every woman. And when you have a homosexual man who’s a movie critic and he wants to make himself into a woman who somehow resembles a film goddess, like the women in film from 1935-1945, and then you have to watch how she interacts with these young people who have know idea who they’re really dealing with. The film never could embrace the different layers of complications of what’s going on with Myra/Myron…
** On her role in the cult classic film Myra Breckenridge in “The GQ&A: Raquel Welch” in GQ (February 10, 2012)
* I was not brought up to be a sex symbol, nor is it in my nature to be one. The fact that I became one is probably the loveliest, most glamorous, and fortunate misunderstanding.
** Quoted in "40 stunning snapshots of Raquel Welch" Purple Clover (August 31, 2017)

### "Raquel Welch Speaks Her Mind"

* I wanted a storybook life, to be Rapunzel and Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty, all the beautiful ladies that wonderful men came along on their big white horses and dragged away. Which is not remarkable, a lot of kids grow up that way. But I decided it was gonna happen.
* In high school I was Rocky, then after the equipment arrived, Hotrocks.
* You have to work with people, whatever assholes they might be.
* The mind is an erogenous zone.
* I am really fed up doing second-rate roles in mediocre films and working against the prejudice that comes with my "image." I have studied all my life. I am not trying to become an actress, I am an artist and an actress.
* I'm not a phenomenon who exists out of time, an anachronism of sociological significance. I'm a person.
