“Despite everything they've done to us, you exist. With everything they're doing now to silence and undermine your objections and confidence, Chebon, you exist. As long as you're alive to witness and protest, you still exist. So don't get down. Instead, get up and shout. Then dance. Don't forget to stomp and dance. Feel your feet on the sand. That's your freedom.”
Chip Livingston, Radical Hope: Letters of Love and Dissent in Dangerous Times

“Remember the balance and share as much good news as you acknowledge the bad. Spread even more good news. This trouble too shall pass. And what comes after this muddy patch is so much better, more solid, and more united in humanity than the planet has yet seen in our living history.”
Chip Livingston, Radical Hope: Letters of Love and Dissent in Dangerous Times

“We're paying attention. All Creation is listening. Make your noise, but also remember to quiet down and distinguish the truth from illusion. Keep your chin up. You're not going back underground, but there are times you'll have to tread water. This is just another one of them. And you know how to swim. But the earth will remain. And we're not going anywhere. Remember as you walk the land your relatives prepared for you: Prepare the world as best you can for seven generations. Life is still a celebration. Trust me, Grandson. There's a reason we don't have a word for "good-bye.”
Chip Livingston, Radical Hope: Letters of Love and Dissent in Dangerous Times
