This week, Nonviolence Radio brings together four voices, each one exploring a different aspect of nonviolence. We hear from religious scholar, activist and writer, Francesca Po; advisor to the Secretary General of Pax Christi International, Marie Dennis; pastor at Clackamas United Church of Christ, Adam Erickson; and senior lecturer in the Peace, Justice and Conflict Studies Program at DePaul University, Ken Butigan. Their varied interests help us to trace the deep roots of nonviolence in our history; to understand how contemporary, post-New Age ‘Self Religion' breeds curiosity and tolerance; to see the ways the Catholic Church is becoming (again) a source of and support for nonviolence education  and finally, to recognize that the ‘scapegoat mechanism' rests on a misunderstanding of scripture and can be fruitfully replaced with an empowering model of nonviolent action.These four speakers, given their distinct perspectives, enlarge and enrich our understanding of nonviolence and reveal it to be a dynamic and powerful force, one with a long past and an increasingly mighty present.

Now that the Fourth of July fireworks are over and the smoke of nationalism has cleared slightly, it's time to pick up the trash on the beaches and look at truth instead of flag-waving. This week on Love (and Revolution) Radio, we offer a special program. According to historian and researcher Walter Conser (not to mention President John Adams) the Revolutionary War was not what won our independence from Great Britain . . . and the answer to what did may surprise you to the point of rethinking everything you've been told about the founding of the United States of America.

Over the last 100 years, how effective have nonviolent resistance movements been to effect social and political change, compared to armed violent uprisings? This was the question that researchers Erica Chenoweth and Maria Stephan set out to answer as they dug deep into the historical data on the subject over the period of 1900-2006. They conclude empirically that nonviolent resistance campaigns were more than twice as effective as violent ones in achieving their goals. On this edition of Peace Talks Radio, Ms. Chenoweth talks with Carol Boss about some of the data, including the conclusion that successful nonviolent resistance was also more effective at creating durable peaceful democracies. Erica Chenoweth is an assistant professor at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies at the University of Denver and an Associate Senior Researcher at the Peace Research Institute of Oslo. Carol also talks with Ken Butigan executive director of Pace e Bene, an organization with a mission to work with individuals, organizations, and movements to strengthen their efforts to abolish war, protect human rights, end poverty, challenge injustice, heal the planet and to meet today’s profound spiritual task: to build a more just, peaceful and nonviolent world. Ken’s a peace and justice worker, workshop facilitator, and writer for two decades. He also teaches at DePaul University in Chicago.
