MOKSA
Dead rats in the canal. You will bury me in the canal. I did not live like a man.
INDIO
I'm going to Congo to fight, Vaisya.
VAISYA
You'll destroy yourself.
INDIO
If you want to collaborate, stay and collaborate.
VAISYA
What kind of world will be built by the maimed, the mutilated, the ruined?
INDIO
Stay, then! I've long forgotten I have a sister! I'll easily forget I have a brother!
MOKSA
(sits up, agitated)
You are causing this meeting to get out of hand, Moses Burumba. You are calling for violence! I should not have come to this meeting! I knew it would not be nonviolent. We must accept the world as it is; Moses Burumba. The best we can do is accept what is given to us. You want to destroy everything! I will not hear it! We must rise by our own talents and energies. Ah! You see! You are wrong! They are beating you, Moses Burumba. You are wrong, Moses Burumba! You are wrong!
VAISYA
Poor father! He's been trying so hard to live his life over again.
