Nonviolent Responses to Terror & Injustice
A Free & Open Source Curriculum
Sunday, 30 January - Monday, 4 April, 2005
Friday 11 February - Week 2, Day 6
Action
"Each of us can work to change a small portion of events and in the total of all those acts will be written the history of this generation.
"
Robert Kennedy
"In action, watch the timing."
Lao Tsu
Truly nonviolent action is centred in love and compassion, Actions speak louder than words, it is said, yet it is not so much loudness as clarity and truth that matters; a gentle action can be far more powerful than a forceful one. So, too, the smallest actions - those closest to home - can be more meaningful than those expressed from a distance.
Today
What actions from the heart can you take today to express your commitment to peace and nonviolence - in your personal life and in the public domain. Imagine what actions Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr. and Robert Kennedy would be taking if they were among us today.
