Why do you hate me, in deed… Props to him for asking the question, while demonstrating love. <3 Love is always the answer.
THIS is what this country needs more of.
Changing the world, one hug at a time.
My sister lives near the college and dreaded this event. The college didn’t even want this Spencer guy there, but he slapped them with a lawsuit. It cost the state over $500K to secure the city against anything that could possibly happen. This is my sister’s email to me:
“We survived — the guy got boo’d and boo’d and boo’d. The auditorium was half full and most of those in attendance were in protest to him. ABC news did a report on it. There was a couple of fist fights but it didn’t trigger anything beyond that.
A really cool thing that happened is that some UF students initiated a virtual seminar on bridging the gap between people who have different views with respect and kindness. They scheduled it the same time as Richard Spencer’s presentation. Our local news showed clips from it and it was actually very good. So some positive things happened.
Sooo, hopefully the night will be quiet. Love you”
I was worried for her but we are relieved that UF handled it well.
Love is the answer. Love can heal the world. A beautiful post, Andrew. Thank you for sharing. Hugs. ♥♥♥
Goosebumps and chills … Dynamite ❤
One of my favorite books is The Shack. The father couldn’t accept that Papa didn’t allow his little girl’s death, Papa said until you stop carrying the anger and hate you won’t understand my love for you. Love not hate leads to strength and harmony. When will the madness stop?
Excellent way to approach hate. how about a T-shirt that says, “Hugs Instead of Hate.”
