There are those who deplore war, revolution, and rebellion.

Manifestly, war is to be lamented, if it is waged to enthrone or to perpetuate wrong, but it expands to superlative grandeur if it is for the purpose of establishing justice and breaking the fetters of slavery.

In such cases every blow struck for the downtrodden sends thrills of joy throughout the world.

The cowering slave looks up and sees, however dimly, the dawn of a new era when he shall be free.

Eugene V.

Debs, “Revolution and Rebellion vs.

Stagnation” (1891).
