A BBC journalist goes on his first foreign reporting trip behind the
Iron Curtain. He wants to get a feeling for what the people think of the
system, so he approaches a man standing in the town square.
"Tell me", he says, "what do you think of the leader of your country?"
"Not here," says the man, looking round furtively, "you never know who
is listening." And he leads the journalist to his car.
They get in and the journalist repeats his question. "Not here," says
the man, "People might see me talking to you." So he drives off into the
country.
After driving for half an hour the man stops the car on a deserted road
in the middle of wide open country. There's no-one else for miles. Again
the journalist asks his question, "What to you think of your leader?"
The man leans forward and, very quietly, says, "I quite like him."

who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the
oppressing." --- Malcolm X
