I feel very happy to be living in Berkeley because there are a lot of people who are politically active here.
Alice WalkerDuring my years of being close to people engaged in changing the world I have seen fear turn into courage. Sorrow into joy. Funerals into celebration. Because whatever the consequences, people, standing side by side, have expressed who they really are, and that ultimately they believe in the love of the world and each other enough to be that.
