The Heart of Peacebuilding: Interview with the Metta Center for Nonviolence
Published Date: June 27, 2014
Listen:

Marc Gopin recently appeared on the Metta Center for Nonviolence’s podcast to discuss why he feels the world is on track toward less violence.  You can read the Metta Center’s post here, or  listen to the  interview.

Life is a sacred challenge of radical unknowability, and it will eventually push you out of this universe. But how you respond to that challenge, therein lies your divine truth, and the discovery of your eternal nature. The desert is your teacher, but your destiny is your own soul.


- Marc Gopin

We hold a vision of a world we want to live in and we are struck by the reality that surrounds us. Is the world more violent than before or less? Do we move toward a sense of despair or do we cultivate a sense of deeper resolve–to work now for what we may never see during our own lifetimes? In this show we explore these ideas in discussion with our regular guests, Kevin Zeese and Margaret Flowers of PopularResistance.org. They join us to talk about the State of the Popular Resistance Movement Worldwide (aka the Resistance Report). Keeping their finger on the pulse of the movement, Zeese and Flowers offer us ideas for involvement in the larger struggle for democratic societies and inspiration for long-term commitment to something larger than ourselves.

Follow their work and get involved at popularresistance.org.
