I’m optimistic about nothing. Give me something to be optimistic about. Anything.
There’s never been a time when this much pressure has built up & it hasn’t spilled over into revolutionary change. We have to be very careful to make sure it’s peaceful, & you’re 100% needed to make that happen. You’re the last person in the world we can afford to have sit down.

Thanks for this. I really appreciate it.

My first response was to also thank Marianne Williamson when she responded to a tweet I posted. She is so calming, even when she tells you it’s time for a revolution

The Indian independence movement led by Gandhi, the Civil Rights Movement led by MLKJr. The most successful political revolutions of the 20th century were non-violent. “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable.” - JFK

No it sure isn’t. That’s of you that just erases Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. from the history books.

Don't police how "peaceful" we're being when we're constantly dealing with the violence of system oppression and poverty. You can say this kind of garbage when you have millions, some of us work for a living.

Believe me I understand that. I just know that violent opposition to the current system would turn America very quickly into a permanent police state. And there is another way.

I’ll tell you the reason: so that we can actually change things for the better.
