Nonviolent Responses to AssaultBelieving in active nonviolence, Gerard G. Vanderhaar says, means recognising that like automobile accidents or fires, the possibility of personal attack is a fact of life. Commitment to living nonviolentely means doing 'just the right nonviolent thing' in the face of violence. In this article Vanderhaar draws largely on personal narratives to give concrete examples of how nonviolence can be a creative alternative to 'fight or flight' when confronting violence.
