64 Days of Non Violence

"Inspired by the M.K. Gandhi Institute of Nonviolence, the annual 64 Days of Nonviolence campaign (known as the Season of Nonviolence) runs from January 30th through April 4th each year, beginning on the day of Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination and ending the day of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s assassination.

Each day, we will bring attention to a new way of practicing nonviolence inspired by Gandhi and King’s own principles. Violence is expressed in many forms, both direct and passive. Direct violence often manifests as physical violence, while passive violence can be exhibited by discrimination, negative self-talk, suppression, waste of resources, etc. During the Season of Nonviolence, we will contemplate many antidotes to all forms of violence."
