I'm excited to see nonviolent action for a good cause spreading throughout the U.S. It seems like consciences are finally being awakened. If you're interested in learning more about nonviolent action, how it's been used throughout history, when it works, why it works, etc - check out season 7 (episodes 104-129). #nonviolence #nonviolentaction #peace
Reflecting on how the concept of nonviolence was weaponized against the people of Gaza. The ruling class demands that nonviolence is the only way for those under the boot to resist, and then justifies their slaughter when they use another strategy (because clearly the nonviolent strategy had not been working). A lot of my followers did not seem to understand this back in October, while believing wholesale the narrative of the oppressors. If you’re one of those people and are still following me, I don’t think you’re off the hook; you’ve really got to dig up those beliefs and get yourself right for the next time.
In 1986, a group of veterans took a stand that would etch their names in the annals of peaceful protest. The "Veterans Fast for Life" was not just a demonstration of physical endurance but a powerful plea for peace and an end to U.S. intervention in Central America. #1980sPeaceMovement #CentralAmerica #CivilConflict #ContraWar #MoralOpposition #NonviolentAction #PeacefulProtest #USForeignPolicy #VeteranActivism #VeteransFastforLife
Quakers have a long history of peacefully fighting for racial equality, and there is a lot to explore about their work during the Civil Rights Movement. In this episode (link in bio), we share first-hand stories of Friends whose spiritual courage led them into the heart of the movement, even when they were beaten and threatened with death. Quakers were among the most influential advocates of nonviolent direct action, choosing boycotts and sit-ins over fists and guns. Today, we explore their work and how it affected one of the most important eras in American history. (Image: David Hartsough, a guest on this episode, participating in a lunch counter sit-in, 1960.)

✊ Nos alegra que la peña de @lautopica_xarxa esté de nuevo presente en Ibiza! Esta vez de la mano de @xribiza y @rebelioncientificaesp Sábado 17 de febrero, en horario de 9.30 ha 14.00 h, las compas de La Utópica organizamos un taller de 4 horas de noviolencia y activismo que no te dejará indiferente. La Acción Directa Noviolenta (ADNV) va mucho más allá del que suele estar asociado al imaginario mainstream. Es un ideal ético y político que se concreta en una práctica personal y comunitaria hacia la transformación de la sociedad o hacia la resolución de determinados conflictos en cualquier escala. En este taller aportaremos unas nociones básicas para perderle el miedo a la desobediencia civil desde la seguridad, el respeto profundo. Desde La Utópica apoyan este taller, para concebir el paradigma de la noviolencia y el ADNV como una de las herramientas más transversales en todos los frentes de transformación 🦋 #taller #ibiza #nonviolentresistance #nonviolentaction #nonviolencia #lautòpica #lautopicaxarxa #rebellioncientifica #xribiza #esxrebellion #climatechange #cambioclimatico #activista

The United States Institute of Peace hosted the St. Anne class of 2023 last April for a discussion on how peace is possible. Students discussed how important their role is creating a more peaceful world. #BeyondTheStAnneGateway, the St. Anne 8th grade Washington, DC trip, is more than a sightseeing tour of the nation’s Capitol. Students are encouraged to apply classroom learning with primary sources found in premier institutions of learning like the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and..., the Arlington National Cemetery, and so many more. “The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically.” St. Anne honors Dr. Martin Luther King today and everyday. ☘️🙏🫶 #DrKing #NonviolentAction #Peace #EducationCharacterFaith #GDKEveryday #TeamStAnne #ChangeMakers #ScholarsAndLeaders #ShamrocksOnTheMove #BlueRibbonSchool #ChooseCatholicSchools

This is an important piece to me. Appreciate @christiansocact for giving it a good home. "Loving" people by taking individual actions to help them while also voting for leaders and policies that harm them is not love. I wrote this piece before Israel began its genocide against the Palestinian people, but let's make those connections too. Link in bio/story if you want to read the thing.

#Repost @drewzter9 —— #repost @radicalmatriarch I originally shared this video of a child trapped in rubble from @eye.on.palestine to my stories. I got a message that it was taken down for “inciting violence”. And that some of my creator privileges have been paused. As a nonviolent mother and activist, I find it abhorrent that sharing truth about the violence inflicted on innocent children was flagged as “inciting violence.” These images aren’t inciting violence—these videos are unveiling the very real violence inflicted on innocent kids and their families every damn day for 80 days straight. Sharing truth for the world to see is not inciting violence. It is begging the world for ceasefire to mitigate the hemorrhage or sacred life. It is a sacred act of violence mitigation. We are sharing these stories to mitigate harm—to make the violence stop. For everyone. In transformative justice we know this: you cannot bomb your way to peace. You cannot ethnically cleanse your way to safety. Cycles of trauma repeat and continue and this violence only perpetuates future violence. No one is safer or freer from decimating an entire population. No one. Our liberations are bound together. As nonviolent activists, we know the only way to stop further cycles of trauma is not through violence but through radical commitments to transformative justice, liberation, amends, repair, and self determination. We will keep sharing the stories of the 1 million children and their families. Like this child, who is trapped under rubble from her waist down. #nonviolent #nonviolentaction #nonviolentresistance #nonviolentactivism #mother #mom #motherhood #momsofinstagram #truth #kids #children #notatarget #ceasefire #deescalation #harmmitigation #deescalate #restorativejustice #trauma #traumacycles #breaktraumacycles #intergenerational #ancestralwounds
You can see the journalists tiring. How much longer must they do this before we get loud enough to make it stop? It’s never been more clear that we need our collective voices to take care of each other. Those in power will not set us free. We set each other free.

Palestinian civil society is calling for a global strike today, Monday, December 11th, to demand an immediate ceasefire. They ask supporters to stay home from work and school, join a picket line, refrain from shopping, organize walkouts, call representatives, and perform other nonviolent actions to press for a permanent ceasefire. Masses of Palestinians, supporters, and anti-war activists are responding to the global call for peace and justice. #GlobalStrike4Palestine #ShutItDown4Palestine #NonviolentAction #Solidarity #NoJustWar #Palestine #Gaza #🍉

Today’s template for my reps. Use freely. Dear Senator xyz, I woke this morning to a video of a P@lèstinian girl, about my daughters age, 8, with tears streaming down her face. Between her tears she said, “I feel like it would be better if I died with my mom. Everyone I love is gone. And all I see is suffering and misery.” I woke this morning to the news that the isr@eli military stormed El Shifa hospital, where 39 NICU babies are struggling to survive after being forcibly removed from ventilators due to bombing funded by our US tax dollars. There are displaced civilians, children—wounded, hungry, thirsty and panicked—trapped inside El Shifa, and our government is aiding and abetting a total disregard for basic civilian life. I woke this morning to the news that along with the over 4,000 children killed, our tax dollars have funded 700,000 children being forcibly expelled from their homes. I watched as rain fell on G@z@ last night, with children sleeping outside, soaking and hungry. I watched as journalists documented empty shelves in all of the grocery stories. G@z@ will be cut off from all communications once again in a few hours. But their stories are with us and we will not be silent. I implore you to call for a ceasefire now. I implore you to demand hospitals and children and civilians be protected. I implore you to demand adequate humanitarian aid to enter g@z@. You are here to represent the people and I implore you to act accordingly. Sincerely, #callyourrepresentatives #ceasefire #ceasefirenow🇵🇸 #ceasefirenow #gaza #freepalestine #freepalestine #liberation #coliberation #freedom #nonviolence #nonviolentaction #ally #motherhood #activism #socialjustice #democracy #wethepeople

Gandhi. Nelson Mandela. Martin Luther King Jr. Susan B. Anthony. These are all names that we celebrate today as visionaries, leading our civilization forward. They are people who put their own freedom, their own LIVES on the line for the benefit of others. Wayne Hsiung of @directactioneverywhere and ALL of the brave souls who have faced arrest for animal rescue belong in that hallowed group of activists who dared to care and imagine better and brighter. I have been on verdict watch with @unchained_tv for the last three days waiting on the edge of my seat to find out if the jury was going to rule in favor of morality and true justice or in favor of the corrupt system of animal agriculture that has its hand in virtually every aspect of our society. I am horrified that our dear friend, ally and leader, Wayne Hsiung, who makes his decisions from his gigantic heart and mobilizes actions using his great intellect, will now remain in jail until November 30th awaiting sentencing with no bail. Yet, following in his footsteps of compassion and grounded positivity, we will use this as an opportunity to keep moving the needle on animal rights. Y’all, let’s blow this story up!!! After his sentencing, @waynehhsiung thanked the judge, jury and prosecutors for hearing him and allowing him to communicate his imperative message. He thanked the folks who convicted him! This man is an exemplar of the movement he supports and leads - the movement to rescue beings who are abused and suffering at the cruel hands of callous industry. His special needs dog Oliver who was rescued out of the dog meat trade is now without his best friend. Thank goodness a friend is stepping up to care for him but this is going to be traumatic for Oliver. Rowdy Girl Sanctuary and Rancher Advocacy Program stand with Wayne Hsiung, Direct Action Everywhere, the countless activists and supporters who have grown this movement and the animals who have been or are still awaiting rescue. Wayne is a hero, we are all heroes when we choose the directive of our heart over the monotony of evil. Compassion is not a crime. FREE WAYNE HSIUNG! ALLOW THE RIGHT TO RESCUE!

I have been on verdict watch with @unchained_tv for the last three days waiting on the edge of my seat to find out if the jury was going to rule in favor of morality and true justice or in favor of the corrupt system of animal agriculture that has its hand in virtually every aspect of our society. I am horrified that our dear friend, ally and leader, Wayne Hsiung, who makes his decisions from his gigantic heart and mobilizes actions using his great intellect, will now remain in jail until November 30th awaiting sentencing with no bail. Yet, following in his footsteps of compassion and grounded positivity, we will use this as an opportunity to keep moving the needle on animal rights. Y’all, let’s blow this story up!!! After his sentencing, @waynehsiung thanked the judge, jury and prosecutors for hearing him and allowing him to communicate his imperative message. He thanked the folks who convicted him! This man is an exemplar of the movement he supports and leads - the movement to rescue beings who are abused and suffering at the cruel hands of callous industry. His special needs dog Oliver who was rescued out of the dog meat trade is now without his best friend. Thank goodness a friend is stepping up to care for him but this is going to be traumatic for Oliver. Rowdy Girl Sanctuary stands with Wayne Hsiung, Direct Action Everywhere, the countless activists and supporters who have grown this movement and the animals who have been or are still awaiting rescue. Wayne is a hero, we are all heroes when we choose the directive of our heart over the monotony of evil. Compassion is not a crime. FREE WAYNE HSIUNG! ALLOW THE RIGHT TO RESCUE!
New initiative from Myanmar’s human rights defenders! A new website aims to document and connect violence and human rights abuses in Myanmar to the perpetrators. The project goal is to establish accountability by connecting alleged crimes to senior army commanders through a timeline of documented atrocities. This initiative is another step in the efforts to put the junta in front of international courts, where they can be charged with war crimes and held accountable for their actions. #Myanmar #justice #nonviolentaction #humanrights (Photo: Frontier)

A year ago I flew to London to join the #FreeAssangeHumanChain I helped inspire, all the way from New Zealand. It felt so empowering to join with 8,000 other supporters, many from all around the world. I met activists I had only worked with online. Really this may be the best day of my life. Here I am with my brother @jamesbrennan123. I will be posting footage I have not yet shared from that day. #FreeAssange #NonviolentAction . #humanchain4assange #FreeJulianAssange #freeassangenow #activism #humanchain #kiwisabroad #kiwisinlondon #closeguantanamo #truth #truthseeker #infowars #propaganda #peacecanbestartedbytruth #endthedamnwars #greenhamcommon #greenhamcommonpeacecamp #bobmarley #nzdub #aotearoa4assange #hugbelmarsh #aotearoarootsmusic

I’m in tears y’all. I don’t even know what to say about the horror that occurred at Cuori Liberi Sanctuary. As a sanctuary director, I know the profound caring and bonding that occurs between animal residents and caretakers. The animals at Rowdy Girl Sanctuary are my family and the thought of them summarily killed by authorities fills me with grief, rage and fear. For those who don’t know, there is a swine flu outbreak in Italy and a mass culling going on. This is horrifying enough but the authorities ordered that a sanctuary called Cuori Liberi also be subject to the cull, even though their animals are quarantined and not in the food supply! Hundreds of activists came to the sanctuary to protest and watched as police dragged activists out against their will. “Veterinarians” arrived with the police to murder 10 pig residents. There are so many levels of wrong here. The spread of Swine Flu is a result of the vile industrial killing machine known as animal agriculture. And now the kindness and compassion of those associated with Cuori Liberi is being punished by the powers that be who care only for profit and not life. This injustice is totally unacceptable and the only solace is that there were so many people there recording it, sharing it and grieving together. Let this tragedy be fuel for our mission. We have got to keep pressing on, putting pressure on the foundations of the system that allows these sorts of crimes against animals to continue. We will win. Someday, people will look back on vegan activists with respect and admiration, not the kind of vilification we receive today as we speak the truth against the ignorance of the majority. RAP stands with the brave activists at Cuori Liberi and all over the world. We are with you in this struggle, in our tears and our victories. We must continue.
