How to make peace? Get angry

Transforming anger into action can be a powerful force for good. Outrage at injustice led to rescuing over 80,000 children from slavery and helped cut global child labor by a third in fifteen years. Rather than suppressing anger, channeling it into compassion and bold ideas can break cycles of oppression. Even one person's righteous anger, when paired with action, can inspire widespread change.
