"The problem with our role is Americans live in a world of illusion"

- Talib Kweli

About this Quote

This quote by Talib Kweli talks to the suggestion that Americans live in a globe of illusion, where they are not knowledgeable about the truths of the world around them. This illusion is developed by the media, political leaders, and also other powerful figures who form the narrative of what is presented to the general public. This illusion can bring about an absence of understanding of truth nature of the world, as well as the troubles that exist in it. This can lead to a lack of compassion as well as understanding of the struggles of others, as well as a lack of action to resolve the concerns. The problem with this duty is that it can cause a detach between the public as well as the truths of the world, and can result in an absence of action to deal with the issues. It is very important to be familiar with the realities of the globe, as well as to take action to deal with the concerns that exist.
