This is the flame we hold in our hearts as we strive for justice for everyone. This is the light we shine on systems of oppression until they are no more. This is the warmth we share with one another as our struggle becomes our salvation.

When I stood I was a group.

When I stoke I changed into a mass.
and when I raised my voice I transformed into a movement.
