How can we conceive of freedom and responsibility when our power is limited and we are subject to the forces of society? The author of this text asks what it means to live responsibly amid historical harm and wrongdoing, in the wake of slavery and genocide, or in the face of severe resource asymmetries. By connecting resistance to evil with reflections on the nature of power and political action, Orlie seeks to reveal the daily ways people commonly exercise power, inflict harm and show themselves capable of actions which transform both selves and the world. Viewed in this context, truly ethical political action may appear miraculous but could happen at any time.
