Celebrating Love, Unity, and Our Collective Strength

On this Valentine’s Day, we take a moment to celebrate not just romantic love, but the deep love of community, solidarity, and shared purpose. Valentine’s Day has long been a day of love, respect, and care—a reminder of the power of human connection. In the Black and Brown Coalition, we recognize that our greatest strength lies in our unity, in the love we show one another, and in our unwavering commitment to building a world filled with justice, equality, and hope.

We stand at a time where division, hate, and despair seek to pull us apart, but today, we choose love. We choose to uplift one another, to align in our common cause, and to fight for a future that embraces all people with dignity and respect.

Let’s ask ourselves what would the best version of our humanity do?

Today, let us reflect on that question as we navigate the struggles we face. Let us love, show compassion, and understanding. 

Let us dedicate ourselves to uplift the oppressed, heal the wounded, and bring people together in times of hardship. As we continue our fight for justice, let us do the same.

Now, more than ever, we need each other. 

Love is an act of resistance against those who seek to divide us. Love is power. Love is action. Love is seeing one another, standing together, and never backing down in the face of injustice.

Let us lead with love today and every day. Let us embrace unity instead of division, hope instead of despair, and collaboration instead of conflict. 

This Valentine’s Day, we recommit to the love that binds us as a coalition and as a people.

Happy Valentine’s Day to each of you. 

May we continue to walk this journey together, with love as our guide and justice as our common

goal.
