Out in the world, I notice the unconscious biases that arise in me when I look at faces on the street or in the news. When a critical mass of people come together to wonder about one another, grieve with one another, and fight with and for one another, we begin to build the solidarity needed for collective liberation and transformation-a solidarity rooted in love. Those we grieve with, those we sit with and weep with, are ultimately those we organize with and advocate for. Who we wonder about determines whose stories we hear and whose joy and pain we share. It is to look upon the face of anyone and choose to say: You are a part of me I do not yet know. See no stranger has become a practice that defines my relationships.

Do I allow myself to be honest about humanity’s failings and the abuse of power, seeing the ways in which I too could become like that which I oppose? -Felicia Murrell And remember that every atom of hate we add to this world makes it still more inhospitable. Tuesday Each of us must turn inward and destroy in himself all that he thinks he ought to destroy in others. Jesus replaced the myth of redemptive violence with the truth of redemptive suffering.
