"We forge the chains we wear in life." -some white person.
That statement isn't about slavery, or labor, it's about emotional bondage.
The statement is about whatever the last person to crotchet it on a pillow believed it to be.
It's a quote from Dickens, A Christmas Carol. It's about our sins binding us to misery or torment.
