Summary
Renowned activist, filmmaker and civil rights lawyer Valarie Kaur made headlines when her 'Breathe and Push' speech on how to survive in a time of rage went viral with 30 million views worldwide. In this inspiring and timely debut, she shows you how to reclaim love as a force for justice.
When we practise love in the face of fear or rage, it has the ability to transform an encounter, a relationship, a community, a culture, even a country. Love becomes revolutionary.
Revolutionary love is the call of our time. A radical, joyful practice that extends in three directions: to others, to our opponents and to ourselves. It invites you to see no stranger but instead look at others and say: you are part of me I do not yet know.
Grounded in Valarie's own personal experience of practising love in the face of political oppression, sexual assault, wrongful arrest, detention, racism and murder, See No Stranger is an important and urgent manifesto that shows us a way to build movements that leave no one behind. You will learn to love others without prejudice or judgement, love your opponents through empathy and forgiveness and ultimately to love yourself.

Crossing the divides with love
Valarie Kaur's dedication, wisdom, bravery, and heart, could easily challenge us all to look beyond and go deeper if we want to right any wrongs within family, within society, within ourselves. It all starts with ourselves.

A must read book.
I am grateful to have come across Valarie Kaur 's book "See no Stranger. A powerful account of the struggle in trying to tackle White Supremacy in America Post 9/11, to present day Trump holding office.
In fact it can apply to most western Countries. Written and spoken of with passion insight kindness and love. There is so much more to be done to turn this around . This book has left me with a renewed spirit that now is the time. With tools and a resource for collaborative work across communities and Countries.
