I enjoyed reading the article by Jon Katz that I am linking below.
We need to maintain this article’s perspective of nonviolence.
Too much anti-Trump hatred only reinforces Trump’s hatreds.
This article is a remedy for the toxicity that is poisoning our nation now.
Someone who took my 6 workshops about “Nonviolent Grassroots Organizing” said she is using what she learned in those workshops.
She sent me this article and wrote, “Iwanted to share a piece by Jon Katz, who speaks about the power of love, the futility of hate at this time in our collective human history. It echoes and beautifully illustrates so many of the ideas you referenced as the foundational principles of your 6 part workshop.”
