"La victime qui est capable d'articuler la situation de la victime a cessé d'être une victime : elle est devenue une menace."
— James Baldwin

Simplified Meaning:
When someone who has been hurt or treated unfairly learns to speak up about what happened, they stop being just a victim. Instead, they become powerful and might scare those who did them wrong. Think about a student who is bullied at school. If this student stays quiet, the bullies keep their power. But if the student talks to teachers and friends about the bullying, the bullies can get in trouble and lose their control. This shows that speaking out can change a situation and protect others from the same harm. By telling their story, the once-silent victim gains strength and can help stop the injustice they faced.
