The ethic of love (Lindsey Appiah)


   Cornel West famously said that Justice is what love looks like in public. We, the other Christians, agree. It is this ethic of love, rooted in the Christian command to love others because God is love, that causes many of us who claim the Christian faith to seek policy solutions to systemic injustice. Not for our power, status, or the protection of our position. But for the extension of systemic justice rooted in love for others.
