Michael Browns parents asked for 4.5 minutes silence after the release of the grand jury decision to reflect on why we rise. So I would like to reflect on why we rise. We rise for the humanity in all of us. We rise so that our children may know a world more just and more loving than the one we have heretofore known. We rise because this nation needs to heal the wounds of its racist past. We rise because all human life is sacred, whether or not the edifices of power recognize that fact. We rise because if not us, who? And if not now, when?
