Is Noam Chomski’s theories and praxis of liberation different from his authentic life? I concluded that yes, because he is a Jew and married a Jew, but he talks of the liberation of blacks just like any western philosopher, unlike John Rawls, whose theories of justice and everyday life are not different. John Rawls' wife was an African artist for 40 years and had 3 beautiful children. He never divorced and he never had a second woman in his life. John Rawls was a highly moral human being.

“Let me paraphrase John Rawls' quote: however theories are elegant, reject them if the theorists of theories and their everyday life are different from their liberation theories.”
