Philosopher and activist Cornel West has long taken on the plight of inequality in race, gender, and class.
This quote, written in his 2009 book, Brother West: Living and Loving Out Loud, A Memoir, speaks to that background. West stresses that if we act with love, we can help create justice for all communities. If we live with the virtues of compassion and integrity — whether that’s shown through our personal relationships or public demonstrations — we can change the lives of those around us.
