Wherever there is conflict in the world, there will be nonviolence. That means, well, it’s everywhere! While violent solutions and groups often gather the most attention from our media, and seem to rule over our collective imagination, it becomes ever more essential to support nonviolent movements, to help raise their voices and help their stories be heard. Woven together, they create a tapestry, depicting a higher image of human nature and our capacity to follow our “evolutionary mandate” (as heard in the Third Harmony film) of nonviolence.
