Hope or Terror? Gandhi and the Other 9/11

Catalog description

Humanity has a double legacy, symbolized in two 9/11s, one at each end of the twentieth century, carrying opposite messages. The 9/11 of 2001, when terrorist Osama bin Laden attacked America; and the less remembered, the 9/11 of 1906, when the apostle of peace Mahatma Gandhi launched a new way of waging conflict that can lead humanity from the mire of hatred into the clear land of peace. This course tells the story of the older 9/11: the story of Satyagraha, the way of nonviolence and truth.
