In addressing the violence of Russia's war against Ukraine, the pope is trying to shift our gaze in the model of Jesus' pastoral accompaniment, writes @DCPeaceTeam director @emccarthy3.

"Be alone. Eat alone, take yourself on dates, sleep alone. In the midst of this you will learn about yourself. You will grow, you will figure out what inspires you, you will curate your own dreams, your own beliefs, your own stunning clarity..."

No one should be forced into crowded cells and separated from their families. It’s time for @ICEgov and @WeAreGeo to let our loved ones be with their families. #FreeThemAll #COVID19

Young children don’t care about differences of nationality, faith or race. So long as their companions smile, they play together happily. It seems it’s only as we grow up, in the course of education, that focussing on secondary differences between people creates trouble.

#Nonviolence pursues heart change, legislative change, cultural change and systemic change. It’s concerned about elevating consciousness and eradicating unjust and inhumane conditions. It is not passive or cowardly.
DC Peace Team retweeted
How we view human nature can mean the difference between living in a world filled with people who are perceived as hostile, violent and dangerous, or as essentially kind, helpful and gentle. A deep awareness of the essential goodness of human beings can give us courage and hope.
DC Peace Team retweeted
We’re asked, how do we keep hope? We remind ourselves that in other places and across time things have been dark, much worse, sometimes. So I ask: how do we build courage today so that when we need to be courageous, we are ready? Today we must practice how to be courageous.
DC Peace Team retweeted
Nonviolence, as a method for social change and as a lifestyle, is not passive and does not avoid tension. It is active, strategic, love-centered noncooperation with evil. It is a way of thinking and acting for courageous people.
