"Il n'y a pas de réponses magiques, pas de méthodes miraculeuses pour surmonter les problèmes auxquels nous sommes confrontés, juste les méthodes familières : une recherche honnête de compréhension, l'éducation, l'organisation, des actions qui augmentent le"

Simplified Meaning:

Dealing with big problems doesn't have simple or easy solutions. We can't rely on miracles or quick fixes. Instead, we need to use tried and true methods. This means we start by trying really hard to understand the issue clearly. Next, we educate ourselves and others about it, so we all know what we're dealing with. It also requires us to get organized and work together, based on shared goals. When we face oppression or injustice, we need to take actions that make it harder for those causing harm to continue. And importantly, we need to stand together with people who are suffering, wherever they are. For instance, if someone is facing unfair treatment at work, we can resist this by learning about workers' rights, organizing protests, and supporting each other to make sure the cost of mistreating workers becomes too high for employers to ignore.
