In context of a happening in the recent past, I feel the following quote

may bear some context to the participants of WikiJournal.

"Imagine you are walking in the woods and you see a small dog sitting by a
tree. As you approach, it suddenly lunges at you, teeth bared. You are
frightened and angry. But then you notice that one of its legs is caught in
a trap. Immediately your mood shifts from anger to concern: You see that
the dog’s aggression is coming from vulnerability and pain. This applies to
all of us. When we behave in hurtful ways, it is because we are caught in
some kind of painful trap. The more we look through the eyes of wisdom at
ourselves and each other, the more we cultivate a compassionate heart."

I can only hope that the board members of the respective WikiJournals be
wise. This is especially relevant to people who deal with issues pertaining
to equality and/or empowerment of certain minorities. It can be awefully
problematic if they lack such wisdom.
