DESCRIPTION:Waging Peace: A Discussion on Civil Disobedience\nfor Occupy and other 
 Activists\n\n \n“Any power structure relies upon the People’s obedience 
 to the orders of the ruler(s).  If the People do not obey, rulers have no 
 power.’’-- Gene Sharp\n\nDavid Hartsough knows how to get in the way. 
 He has used his body to block navy ships headed for Vietnam and trains 
 loaded with munitions on their way to El Salvador and Nicaragua. He has 
 crossed borders to meet “the enemy” in East Berlin, Castro’s Cuba, 
 and present-day Iran. He has marched with mothers confronting a violent 
 regime in Guatemala and stood with refugees threatened ​by death squads 
 in the Philippines.\n\nHartsough has spent his life experimenting with the 
 power of active nonviolence. His is the story of one man’s effort to live 
 as though we were all brothers and sisters. He inspires, encourages and 
 empowers us to help create a world that is peaceful and just. Hartsough 
 will lead a discussion on what it takes to put your body on the line. Where 
 do you find the courage? How do you deal with fear?  How do you deal with 
 arrest and jail? How do your comrades help and hinder? How do you create 
 campaigns? How does a group bent on massive change actually get the job 
 done?\n\nDavid Hartsough is executive director of Peaceworkers, based in 
 San Francisco, and is cofounder of the Nonviolent Peaceforce. He is a 
 Quaker and member of the San Francisco Friends Meeting. Hartsough has 
 worked actively and internationally for nonviolent social change and 
 peaceful resolution of conflicts since he met Dr. Marin Luther King Jr. in 
 1956. He is a longtime friend of Occupy Forum.\n\n Announcements will 
 follow. Donations to Occupy Forum\nto cover our costs are encouraged; no 
 one turned away for lack of funds! \n\n
