New TTT dvd - Nonviolence for a Change2011-03-27 00:00
We've just launched our new 30 minute dvd, Nonviolence for a Change.
What is nonviolence? How do we measure effectiveness? What about democracy? Should all direct action be nonviolent? These were some of the questions posed in the video we produced in 2001, which continues to be used around the world.
Our new dvd is a revision of the 2001 video, updated with new material and comparing the issues now with 10 years ago. It features the same activists as before, asking them what has changed. There are contributions from Green MP, Caroline Lucas, Tony Benn and Director of Liberty, Shami Chakrabarti and music from Seize the Day. Plus some bonus clips at the end.
