A season for Non-violence
January 30 - April 4
A Season For Nonviolence encompasses the 64 calendar days between the commemorative dates of Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s. It is a national educational, media, and grassroots campaign dedicated to demonstrating that non-violence is a powerful way to heal, transform, and empower our lives and our communities.
The purpose of this site is to promote and spread the principles of nonviolence, creating a more inclusive, understanding, and compassionate society, ultimately helping to bridge the social divide in communities here at home and across America.

Martin Luther King Jr.
Nonviolence means avoiding not only external physical violence but also internal violence of spirit. You not only refuse to shoot a man, but you refuse to hate him.
Mahatma Gandhi
Nonviolence is the greatest force at the disposal of mankind. It is mightier than the mightiest weapon of destruction devised by the ingenuity of man.
