Nonviolence is a way of life for courageous people. This is what inspired and empowered Robin Wildman to create a program for nonviolent schools in Rhode Island, USA. A retired school teacher herself, Robin is a nonviolence trainer in the tradition of Martin Luther King Jr. Thus the work of Nonviolent Schools Rhode Island is based on the faith in and the living practice of building what King called 'the beloved community'. This is what enables students to repair relationships after a conflict. Here Robin reflects on locating activism for nonviolence in the larger context of hurt and anger that leads to random violence in the USA.

On each Tuesday of this month, in celebration of Asian, Asian-American, and Pacific Islander voices, we are revisiting conversations from our archives that feature AAPI writers, thinkers, artists, and healers. Today we are revisiting an episode from February 2020 in which Kazu Haga is joined by CIIS professor and restorative justice expert Sonya Shah for a conversation about his life, Kingian Nonviolence, and his book, Healing Resistance. Because CIIS' history and identity is indebted to the wisdom traditions of Asian cultures, we are particularly called upon to stand in solidarity with the AAPI community. We share in the feelings of helplessness and grief of this moment, and there is nothing that we can say or do that will change the loss of life or the historical legacy of anti-Asian violence in the United States. We hope that in hearing these episodes—again or for the first time—listeners are provided opportunities for connection and healing. This episode contains explicit language.
