Non-Violence

Many people will speak about non-violence. I think that very few people explain it, if you're just used to more violent thinking. The fact is: you, yourself, don't have to be part of that.
On the left: Malcolm X. He struggled personally, and went through early life as a petty thief, and through a period of deep anger when he worked to secure equal rights for black americans during the violence of the American civil rights era. As he engaged in the struggle for black rights, he became a person who worked to define those rights, and he made a deeply felt commitment to achieving change through non-violent actions.
It would be fair to say that as Malcolm X travelled widely, and spoke to more people from more cultures who had increasingly wider ideas, Malcolm became increasingly inclined towards peace. Unfortunately Malcolm's life was cut short, as was Doctor King's. Let's all take a moment to think on what the ideas of peace and non-violence mean.
