SEASON FOR NONVIOLENCE

"And so it is marvelous and great that we do have a dream; to forever challenge us; to forever give us a sense of urgency; to forever stand in the midst of the "isness" of our terrible injustices; to remind us of the "oughtness" of our noble capacity for justice and love and brotherhood." Martin Luther King, Jr.

The Season for Nonviolence is a grass-roots educational, media, and community action campaign dedicated to demonstrating that nonviolence is a powerful way to heal, transform, and empower our lives and our communities. Commemorating the lives and deaths of Mahatma Gandhi, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Cesar Chavez, the Season for Nonviolence honors and promotes their vision for an empowered, nonviolent world, by using media, events, education and dialogue to spread the message that making nonviolent choices to meet challenges, as a way of life, brings together communities, groups, and individuals in a way that can move mountains. At the request of Arun Gandhi, grandson of Mahatma Gandhi, the Association for Global New Thought has been coordinating plans for the eleventh annual Season for Nonviolence .

This year, several organizations, churches, and individuals, for the fourth year, are again joining forces to create the El Dorado County Season for Nonviolence . This is an opportunity to join together with fellow citizens from El Dorado County and from communities across the globe in making a pledge of nonviolence, putting the principles of nonviolence into action, and getting out the message about the hope for and necessity of creating a more peaceful world through nonviolence. Please join us in our effort.

If you are interested in helping out with the organizing effort or sponsoring an event, or would like more information, contact Dominique at 295-3881 or Jim at 622-9549. .
