What is HUM 455…
…Non Violent Resistance?
It’s a class that’s offered through Antioch University McGregor’s Under Graduate Studies Program that (from the course catalog) examines 20th century cases in which non-violent resistance has been used to overcome oppression throughout the world. Students study examples from Russia, India, Poland, Germany, Denmark, the U.S., South Africa, the Philippines, the Middle East, and elsewhere. Throughout the quarter the class monitors current anti-war resistance in the U.S. and critically reflects on its means and ends.
One of our assignments is to keep a weekly journal of our thoughts and reactions to what we are learning and things we find that relate to the class.
This is mine.
