By Joanne Sheehan

October 19, 2003

Founded in 1923 to support World War I resisters, the War Resisters League turns 80 this week, making it the country's oldest secular peace group.

Decades of Nonviolence Training

From The Nonviolent Activist, July - August 1998

Practicing Nonviolence
By Joanne Sheehan

The acquisition of the spirit of nonresistance is a matter of long training in … appreciation of the hidden forces within ourselves. It changes one’s outlook on life. — Mohandas Gandhi
