Alice Walker, in her book "Hard Times Require Furious Dancing: New Poems," emphasizes that loving humanity involves expressing oneself through various forms of art, including poetry, songs, novels, and plays. These creative outputs serve as a reflection of compassion and understanding towards others, even those who may not agree with us. The author suggests that critics may oppose these expressions, viewing them negatively instead of as acts of empathy and connection. However, Walker asserts that if we change our perspective and recognize the humanity in everyone, we can better assist and support one another in difficult times.
