Video: Being the Change in a Violent World

During the 20th Century, over 100 million people lost their lives to war — most of whom were non-combatants. Now, at the dawn of the 21st century with over trillions of dollars spent annually on war-building and a fast-growing prison industrial complex for violent offenders, the need for non-violent conflict resolution is at an all-time high. On this episode, we celebrate the Season of Nonviolence (memorializing the assassinations of Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr.) with the leaders of The Peace Alliance, and learn about their revolutionary legislation creating the first-ever cabinet position for a U.S. Department of Peacebuilding.
