Here is an article about last night's talk in the local campus paper.

Well, Miss Lori just laid it all out above describing our undertaking. Doc just spoke to a standing room only crowd tonight tonight in Tucson. This is quite an experiment being conducted. I gotta go and finish up my readings.

Nonviolence as a Healing Place
Many of us speak about working for peace or wanting to create a culture of peace, but there is one peace integral to creating the Beloved Community that many us forget about. Peace of mind. Let us remember that we in the nonviolence movement are not only educators and activists, but we are healers. It is our goal to heal through compassion and Agape--to listen with open ears and arms, and a welcoming word. We must lead by example. It is not enough to train others in the philosophy, but we must h… Continue

About
The Gathering’s Mission
The mission of The Gathering is to build an Intergenerational, movement, rooted in history, cultures and non-violent direct action to heal communities, build collective strength and generate an environment of hope and opportunity.
Civil rights and social justice organizations have come to understand that collective action on a national basis is required to stop child incarceration and challenge the immoral process which perpetuates an unjust justice system. These groups are working under extremely difficult circumstances and many of them with little or no resources. The Gathering is a national movement that creates a coordinated space to 1) fortify relationships between regional groups, 2) support local endeavors and 3) enhance the ongoing organizing of non-violent direct action training. Central to its mission is strengthening our moral environment.
