I really love this! Such a beautiful article! I definitely love this quote “Solidarity is the political version of love”. You are right we all definitely have to stick together for the sake of the improvement of humanity.
This as well is an eye-opening truth! .... " “The civil rights movement had the power to transform society because the individuals who struggle alone and in community for freedom and justice wanted these gifts to be for all, not just the suffering and the oppressed. Visionary black leaders such as Septima Clark, Fannie Lou Hamer, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Howard Thurman warned against isolationism. They encouraged black people to look beyond our own circumstances and assume responsibility for the planet. This call for communion with a world beyond the self, the tribe, the race, the nation, was a constant invitation for personal expansion and growth.”- From “Love as the Practice of Freedom” by bell hooks"
Thank you for this! What a profoundly insightful quote. This ever-expanding web of relations, imbued wholly with love and compassion is the closest thing to G-d that I know of. bell hooks, as always, beautifully paints the socio-political contours through which we can more fully imagine a world built of love.
