Practicing Revolutionary Love in Everyday Life
Revolutionary love is the powerful force of healing, change, and transformation. It is the recognition that we belong to one another as siblings and that our movements for justice are rooted in deep solidarity. Solidarity goes beyond shallow exchanges and is instead rooted in love. By coming together, grieving, raging, and reimagining, we can create pockets of beloved community where everyone can feel fully seen and beloved. By practicing the three levels of love—self-love, love of our posse, and love of the world—we can equip ourselves with the tools to build a better future and birth the long-awaited nation.
