How do we love in a time of rage? How do we fix a broken world while not breaking ourselves? Valarie Kaur, a Sikh activist, filmmaker and civil rights lawyer, describes revolutionary love as the call of our time. A radical, joyful practice extends in three directions: to others, to our opponents, and to ourselves. It enjoins us to see no stranger, but instead look at others and say, “You are a part of me I do not yet know.” Starting at the place of wonder, the world begins to change. This practice can transform a relationship, a community, a culture and even a nation. See No Stranger helps to imagine new ways of being with each other and ourselves, so that together we can begin to build the world we want to see. Valarie Kaur is founder of the Revolutionary Love Project.
