A politics of love

Więcej o książce

In this stirring call to arms, the activist and spiritual leader confronts the politics of fear and divisiveness threatening the United States today, urging spiritually aware Americans to act from our deepest value: love. America’s history is marked by social achievements, from the Abolitionists and Suffragettes to Civil Rights advocates and champions of equality for all. These activists have embodied the nation’s core values. Yet, America faces turmoil as a spiritual cancer of fear threatens our progress, dissolving communal bonds and undermining social responsibility. This powerful manifesto offers a remedy for this cultural malignancy, urging us to emulate our past heroes and sow love where hatred has taken root. The author emphasizes the need to address not just external political issues but also the deeper internal causes of our current dysfunction. A new, whole-person politics of love is necessary—one that emerges from the heart and genuine affection for one another, rather than mere intellectual understanding. By committing to love, we can contribute to the joyful and disruptive energies rising at this critical moment. As Abraham Lincoln said, "we must think anew, and act anew . . . and then we shall save our country."
