Parenting as a Protest Against Hate
"I am reinvigorated in my commitment to raising my children to maximize their capacity to feel empathy as personal protest against the rampant discrimination we face as a nation. As a mother, I may not be able to organize and mobilize in the way I feel called to right now, but I can feel confident that I am contributing by raising the next generation to fight hate with love and understanding. And that is potentially the most important job that anyone can be called to do." ~Lauren Gottschalk-Scher writes a few years back in "Parenting as a Protest Against Hate" for API's The Attached Family magazine. We have powerful work to do.
