Too often, we speak of revolution as if it will arrive wrapped in poetry and triumph, when the truth is far more difficult. Revolutions are not abstract—they are violent, costly, and demand sacrifice from those who dare to fight for freedom. Our siblings in Haiti and Sudan remind us that liberation comes with bloodshed, displacement, and hunger, not hashtags or slogans. To romanticize struggle without recognizing its weight is to make ourselves spectators instead of participants. Revolution requires more than declarations—it means giving up our comforts and living in action. It demands that we prioritize community over convenience and discipline over ease. It asks us to transform our daily lives into extensions of the struggle, rather than waiting for an imagined moment to arrive. If we are serious about liberation, we must prepare ourselves not for the fantasy of revolution, but for the reality of it. Only then can we honor those who came before us and carry their fight forward.
