It’s a crazy time with a lot of emotions after the election. A lot of wide-ranging and diverse emotions from everyone. Ranging from despair and quitting, to invigorated and inspired, to celebrating victory. Here at Revolution, we try to respect the entire spectrum of emotions, ideas, and people. Revolution will always fight for equality, on every level we can. If you are in despair, it’s not over—this is what Revolution trained for. If you are celebrating, please do so, while seeing the humanity and others and understanding why they might not be feeling the same way and help them, with love, understand where you are coming from. No more biting and devouring. Let’s all give of ourselves to each other in hopes that it will bring about a truth that is higher than politics and parties. Are we so devoted to politicians that it blinds us to the humanity of each other? Do we want a revolution but not want to have to endure a revolution? We have to all work together and see each other’s humanity—regardless of political leanings, this is the ONLY way forward. Seeing each other as humans. All of us. Because grace is anarchy. It doesn’t hold to one system or leaning. Grace is for everyone, no footnotes or exceptions. MLK says we will remember the silence of our friends. This is what we’re saying, we can’t be self-focused, we need to be others-focused, because we’re not alone in this. If we want change, we have to learn to take the higher ground. How do we live in such a divided world and still find a way to help mend this division? We don’t know, really, we don’t, but we don’t see any path forward, any hope in mending division if we can’t all come together and see each other’s humanity. See each other as human. This is the only way. We can do this!
