of misery and suffering. They are urged to support efforts to
overcome racial, social, economic, and educational
discrimination; to bear testimony against all forms of oppression; to exert
influence for such treatment of prisoners as may help
reconstruct their lives; and to work for the abolition of the death penalty.

Advice and Queries

All are especially cautioned against any harshness of
tone or manner when administering counsel or reproof, either
privately or in meetings. Friends should speak truth with love,
remembering that if they would do God's work, they must
abide in God's love. Even a seeming harshness may check the
beginnings of true repentance, and a lack of sympathy may
cause harm where only good was intended.
