the goal is to increase love

“If love were the central practice of a new generation of organizers and spiritual leaders, it would have a massive impact on what was considered organizing. If the goal was to increase the love, rather than winning or dominating a constant opponent, I think we could actually imagine liberation from constant oppression. We would suddenly be seeing everything we do, everyone we meet, not through the tactical eyes of war, but through the eyes of love. We would see that there’s no such thing as a blank canvas, an empty land, or a new idea — but everywhere there is complex, ancient, fertile ground full of potential.” -Adrienne Marie Brown ( Emergent Strategy) 💜
