Nonviolence Activism 101 at the Pjc

Past event
Mar 22, 2017, 6 to 8 PM

Nonviolence has been proven to be incredibly effective in addressing oppression even though our culture may not embrace or encourage this truth. Nonviolent activists employ a wide variety of strategies, such as rallies, marches, hunger strikes, boycotts, and much more. Participants will explore personal and social identities; learn aspects of Kingian Nonviolence, and engaging in role play. This program is designed to help unlock meaningful ways to work towards social justice and peace without perpetuating cycles of violence that permeate our culture. This program is led by Kyle Silliman-Smith. This is one workshop held in two parts on Wednesdays, March 22 & 29 from 6-8pm at the Peace & Justice Center, 60 Lake Street, in Burlington. We ask participants, who can, to financially contribute to this program to support our ongoing peace work. Space is limited to ensure your spot please sign-up online (https://goo.gl/forms/BTR8sn9pURBwZUry1) or call us at 863-2345 x6.
