For your contemplation: “The nonviolent approach does not immediately change the heart of the oppressor. It first does something to the hearts and souls of those committed to it. It gives them a new self-respect; it calls up resources of strength and courage that they did not know they had. Finally, it reaches the opponent: and so stirs his conscience that reconciliation become realty.” Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
