> 
> We mean, stop using bombs and sanctions and bases and walls and massive prisons to relate to other people.

> Love? 
> 
> There are various kinds: eros, or romantic love; phileo, or brotherly love; agape, or love for all humanity (and species beyond humanity).

> "Agape," said Martin Luther King Jr., "means understanding, redeeming good will for all . . . . It is an overflowing love which is purely spontaneous, unmotivated, groundless, and creative. It is not set in motion by any quality or function of its object."
> 
> "Agape," King said, "is not a weak, passive love. It is love in action. Agape is love seeking to preserve and create community." 
> 
> Agape is something RootsAction aspires to. We are dedicated to bringing people together to understand our own power to create loving, rather than warring, policy and society.
