Violence in Social Change
From: Are We Done Fighting?
$1.50
In this chapter about examining the role of violence in bringing about social change, the author provides evidence that nonviolent campaigns are more effective for social change, in part because more people feel safe to join in the campaign. This chapter also explores healthy ways to express anger, as well as effective ways to build movements, before concluding with tips, several group activities and a case study.
