JUST READ A GREAT BOOK ABOUT NONVIOLENCE
"The Search for a Nonviolent Future" by Michael N. Nagler. It is an awesome examination of violence and why so many people accept it in our society, and also shows all the powerful ways nonviolence has worked in social revolutions.

I review books for numerous book review websites, and of the literally hundreds of books I've gotten over the last few years, this is one of the most empowering and inspiring. I highly recommend it as it helps us understand why people accept violence so easily, and how it is NOT a natural part of our species' behavior, but a learned response. Really enlightening stuff for all us peace warriors out there!!!
