Revolutionary Love Day (Valerie Kaur)
From Valerie Kaur:
What is the antidote to rising nationalism, polarization and hate in the US and around the globe? Movement lawyer, filmmaker, and civil rights activist Valarie Kaur argues that we must reclaim love as a public ethic. Kaur redefines love as a form of sweet labor — bloody, imperfect, life-giving. When we pour love in three directions — toward others, opponents, and ourselves, then love becomes revolutionary.
Through a journey that spans the birthing room to sites of bloodshed, Kaur leaves us with a singular call to action: How do we begin to birth a new future? Do like the midwife says:
Breathe. Then… Push.
