Love as the Practice of Freedom


"The moment we choose to love we begin to move against domination, against

oppression. The moment we choose to love we begin to move towards freedom, to

act in ways that liberate ourselves and others. That action is the testimony of love

as the practice of freedom."

Where do we go from here

---

"Power properly understood is to achieve purpose. Power

without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is

sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is LOVE

implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is

power correcting everything that stands against love."
