So, why did you come to Chicago?
To try and make a difference.
Thought I would, too.
I thought maybe I'd work civil cases,
help women, empower them.
Being at that meeting today aroused some of those old dreams.
Lit some kind of fire.
But those last couple years,
the corporate firms descend upon the campus like a pack of wolves.
And they're so appealing.
I wanted to be in a position to pay off my loans, pay my folks back.
Live a little.
Enjoy life.
There's nothing wrong with that.
There's nothing wrong with it until there is.
Yeah. I know what you mean.
I feel like something else is pulling at me.
I wonder if I can write books, or...
hold a position of influence in civil rights.
- Politics? - Maybe.
I just wanna do more.
Yeah, so do I.
And maybe just wanting it is enough for now.
