"The serf, in the period of serfdom, raised himself to membership in the commune, just as the petty bourgeois, under the yoke of feudal absolutism, managed to develop into a bougeois. The modern [potter], on the contrary, sinks deeper and deeper below the conditions of existence of his own class."

For all of the named potters in the world
And all of the named negro heroes
I'd like to add myself to your canons

My name goes here
