This thread and series of thoughts from @gregggonsalves.bsky.social is excellent and worth your time.
I'm surprised how many people are quick to make a defense of violence in my replies. For them it's necessary, foreclosing on its use is a privilege. For me, non-violence is a powerful tool. It is the lesson of one of my heroes, Bayard Rustin. 1/ wagingnonviolence.org/2022/08/reme...
Remembering the genius of Bayard Rustin
Thirty-five years after his death, the man who mentored Martin Luther King Jr. still has much to teach movements.
