Nonviolent actors can assist the media in explaining nonviolence and nonviolent social movements by “interpreting” their actions to the media, explaining exactly what happened and its significance. Without this interpretation, the public may never learn about the dynamics of nonviolence from the press. For example, major media claimed that the Philippine People Power movement was in a “category all by itself” when clearly it was connected to and an outgrowth of Gandhi, King, and previous movements around the world. More recently, when Serbia’s Otpor Uprising overthrew the notorious dictator Slobodan Milošević (a campaign which took months of careful planning and strategic organizing, including a well-organized nonviolent moment), the New York Times reported that “a mob descended on Belgrade.” For nonviolence to spread, the participants must find ways to communicate the underpinnings of nonviolence through books, film, the media, or risk having their successes and their work misunderstood, overlooked, misrepresented, and marginalized. Interpretation can lead to greater understanding, appreciation, and evaluation of nonviolence.
