“As soon as individuals with a cause have found one another out, they combine. From that moment on, they are no longer isolated people, but a power seen from afar whose actions serve for an example, and whose language is listened to.”
Alexis de Tocqueville | Democracy in America, 1835
David Fuller, ADT Chair
