Today, during a discussion with my students (10 year olds) about the Birmingham movement I was asking them what Bull Connor's "truth" was (they about the Hegelian method) and one student replied that Bull Connor must have been worried about how HIS…
Kudos to the Tucson people for organizing this new movement in AZ! The article in the campus paper was very well-written! Looking forward to final thoughts once your training has been completed.
What are the plans for following up with these students and how often will this happen, to keep the momentum going in Chicago?
I just met with Charlie today because I want to create a way to record some type of data to PROVE that nonviolence education is successful, more successful, in my opinion, than packaged peer mediation programs.
As far as evaluating training, are you…
It is time for collective action. If we continue to claim territory verses acknowledging our responsibility we will remain in a state of mental poverty. Lets come together so that we may meet the demand for training.
During a discussion about nonviolence versus violence in my 5th grade classroom I asked the students why they thought that most of what you hear about in the news revolves around violent events, rather than nonviolent, peaceful ones. One boy raised…
Hey Jonathan,
Can we make our own pledge cards using the quote above but making the list underneath different? My students wouldn't understand some of what is on the card.
Thank you Miss Lori! Listening to your song was a great way to start my day!
Beautiful words Miss Lori--well said! I agree with you, we need to practice nonviolence in our words and actions every day, all of the days. By doing this you will be the one that people come to when they are in need of help. Agape is always in my m…
It is the goal of The Gathering to bring young people from over 100 nations to come & petition the General Assembly of the UN, and declare the 21st century as the Century for Peace and Nonviolence for the Children of the World on September 21, 2010

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.
