It seems that I found yet another online community to participate in. :)

propeace.net entry on the season of nonviolence

I will have to explore the place. :)

I found this interesting column that appeared in the Kansan as part of the season of nonviolence.

The author is the head of a rape and violence against women center at a university in Kansas. She discusses how we can use nonviolence on a personal level to reduce the amount of violence in our society.

Nice read because of the context.

I found this great blog about living nonviolence at a personal level.

Dear friends of Farida,
I am so excited for my blog, readers and friends! January 30th marks the beginning of the Season for Nonviolence. For 64 days I will post a "way" to practice Nonviolence in your life. Each entry will be tagged under "64 ways to practice nonviolence" and "peace studies". Feel free to pass the good word around or share the links.

From 1/30 through 4/4, "www.faridarafique.com" will be an active participant of this beautiful season.

Days 1 - 23 focus on Personal change.
Nonviolence begins by learning how to be less violent and more compassionate with ourselves. We learn by building courage to speak and act with a respect, honor and reverence for our own being.
Days 24 - 46 focus on Interpersonal change.
In order to create a peaceful world, we must learn to practice nonviolence with one another in our day-to-day interactions.
Days 47 - 64 focus on Community.
Nonviolence challenges us to stand for Truth by taking action that honors the dignity and worth of
every human being.
