"We are witnessing the rise of a revolutionary movement of political civil disobedience with the power to reimagine the tragedy that is race in America. To witness so many young people find their voices and inhabit their power is truly invigorating. Amidst so many platitudes about apathy and disenfranchisement, the present civil disobedience sweeping across the United States is a profound political engagement. There is a real possibility for the emergence of a revolution that would transform our world, not by tearing it down, but by returning it to its never-realized fundamental principles. That promise persists, so long as we recall that the possibility of revolution comes not from violence but from the power of the people."
