". . . [I]t will always be incumbent upon the individual poet, as citizen and artist, to affirm the right of dissent against malfeasance on grounds of human values. This is where poetry can be a potent force for liberation, the search of beauty and social justice, and the pursuit of being as expressed in the defense and actualization of human integrity."
- From the Introduction, "On Liberation Poetry"
