The Third Harmony Film Screening & Dialogue: Where Do We Go From Here?

At a time when protests are rising across the country and around the world, many of us are asking deeper questions about what real change requires. What does it mean not only to resist injustice, but to build something more whole in its place? And where does nonviolence fit—not just as a strategy, but as a guiding force?

Join us for a screening of The Third Harmony, followed by a facilitated dialogue exploring what comes next.

The film invites us into a powerful rethinking of human nature and the role nonviolence has played—and can continue to play—in shaping our shared future. From there, we’ll take time together to reflect on the moment we’re in:

What are today’s movements calling for, and what are they revealing?
Is nonviolence simply a tool within movements—or is it the movement itself?
What would it take for our actions, our relationships, and our vision to come into greater alignment?

As we explore these questions, we’ll also draw on the Metta Center’s roadmap of nonviolence—person power, constructive program, and satyagraha—as a way of recognizing the many roles within a living movement. Nonviolence is not one path or one kind of action, but a diverse and dispersed effort, where each of us has a place and a contribution to make.

This isn’t about having the right answers. It’s about creating space to think together, to listen, and to consider what this moment is asking of us—individually and collectively.

Whether you’re new to nonviolence or have been engaging with it for years, you are very welcome here.
