A Door Into Ocean plus the Nonviolence Report with Michael Nagler

Nonviolence Radio

“Share the Day” — this is a translation of a greeting from the ocean world of Shora, which was a world created by Joan Slonczewski. She’s a science fiction writer and professor at Kenyon College. This is from her 1986 novel “A Door into Ocean.” The book describes a society of people who are committed to nonviolence at a very, very deep level — and not just an emotional, sentimental kind of “do no harm” nonviolence, but one that is a really deeply transformed view of what it means to be human. And with that, what’s really at stake when we turn to or away from the nonviolent path.

In the Nonviolence Report Michael Nagler reflects upon Derek Chauvin's conviction and gives resources for further training.
