I
am privileged to be a member of the Summit Council of the INTERnational Week
for Nonviolence, which will be held 16th-23rd August 2014.
If you are organising an event during
that week, please post the details in the comments section below.
I have also posted some NVC events -
not just events for that week – here.
One of my guests on my recent show about Black parents and nonviolence was saying, "You CAN'T teach
young people nonviolence because they have to fight".
I was reminded of the first time I met
Marshall Rosenberg, author of Nonviolent Communication. I
asked him about his work with Black gang leaders.
I talk about this in the audio below.
I
am also inspired by the example of Malcolm X. He was alienated and
disaffected, and he became involved in petty crime and ended up in
prison. But the right support and encouragement, and given the right
inspiration, he became a leader.

below for more.
I am really passionate about this
work. NVC is saving people's lives all over the world, and it could
save your life. It could save your child's life.
The
INTERnational Week for Nonviolence is not exclusively for people of
African heritage. It's for everyone.
I
have written about Nonviolent
Communication in Success
Strategies for Black People and
my new ebook, Affirmations
for Parents.
