"We Love," Mark Sappenfield, Christian Science Monitor (With A Keynote By Ta-Nehisi Coates)

 Nonviolence is not about the protesters, really. It is the gift of the protesters to those in power, showing a higher and more humane mode of action. 
“The people who are called on to be nonviolent are the people with the ability to do the least amount of damage; 
whereas, we don’t call upon those who have the most power 
and actually can do the most damage.”

"We Love" 
The impetus of this moment is a primal cry for an expanded sense of love for all – a truer “us.” 
That idea of progress must be defended.
