Washington acknowledged that political parties are a part of human nature in his Farewell Address, and that still holds true today.

Both King and Gandhi cautioned that violence breeds more violence, that nonviolent means must be enforced to successfully accomplish their goals. King illustrates this best when he said: “Never could I advocate nonviolence in this country and not advocate nonviolence for the whole world.

Hate towards Muslims specifically must end.
