"The struggle between the artist and the state can best be seen in performance in general and in the battle over performance space in particular. . . . With the emergence of the state, the artist and the state become not only rivals in articulating laws, moral or formal, that regulate life in society, but also rivals in determining the manner and circumstances of their delivery."
~ Ngugi wa Thiong'o
"Study of the history of liberation struggles shows that they have generally been preceded by an upsurge of cultural manifestations, which progressively harden into an attempt, successful or not, to assert the cultural personality of the dominated people by an act of denial of the culture of the oppressor."
~ Amilcar Cabral
