'Violence is not necessarily an explosion of rage detonated by an individual with a stick, a gun or an army. The most pervasive forms of violence are often no single person’s fault, which is why racism and gender inequality can so often be dismissed as just part of the cultural backdrop. Architecture, the layout of a city, finance, access to food and water, contamination, immobility or forced mobility, limits to educational attainment and other pathologies of power too often appear as the way things are.'
