Speaking about those protest days of the 1960s, Congressman Lewis shares: "The movement created what I like to call a nonviolent revolution. It was love at its best. It's one of the highest forms of love. That you beat me, you arrest me, you take me to jail, you almost kill me, but in spite of that, I'm gonna still love you."
"Violence flourishes unchecked when the feminine withdraws. This world needs the feminine now, more than ever." ~Regena Thomashauer
