In this session, Father John Dear will reflect on the critical importance of “nonviolence” for each one of us today, in our hearts and our personal lives, and for our world. He will review the basics, point out some areas that we can actively work on, and encourage us to do what we can together to be a force for a more nonviolent nation and world. He looks at creative nonviolence from the perspective of Gandhi, Dr. King and Dorothy Day, and his many friends and teachers, including Daniel and Philip Berrigan, Coretta Scotta King, Mother Theresa, Thich Nhat Hanh and Archbishop Desmond Tutu, who nominated him for the Nobel Peace Prize.
