Unwrapping a Key Gift of Nonviolence

Host Timothy Regan invites listeners to help unpack a powerful principle given to us by the nonviolence movement of Martin Luther King, Jr.

This principle is:  “Attack forces of evil, not persons doing evil.”  In other words, “direct all of your wrath, your fury, your outrage, and your passion at systems and conditions that harm life, and direct your empathy, understanding, tenderness, and compassion toward the people caught in the enactment of those systems and conditions.”

The question is:  “How do you do this?”  A good question is a guide and a gift, and this is a worthy question for our times.

Timothy offers insights to answer this question, with the help of live callers who share their stories and perspectives.
