Poem Title:
Poem
No need for violence or aggression A passive acceptance of oppression A powerful tool for social protest To be peaceful and not violence many will resist It presumes the intent of social change Some believe not using belligerence is insane Nonviolence is a synonym for pacifism When you hear this word, you associate it with Civil Rights and racism Nonviolence is not inaction it is the patience to win You gain a lot of support, love, respect, and friends See many people do not like change So many have used diverse methods in their peaceful campaigns Dr. Martin Luther King seen peace and equality to all races in his dream Mahatma Gandhi helped India win its independence through bigotry that was extreme I think that we should inevitably re-shape the social order in a lack of prejudice form If we constantly use peace, we can weather many of these racial motivated storms To listen to another's point of view is largely dependent on reciprocity Not injustice, hate, and apathy That is what makes me so angry Remember what Jesus’ says, "love thine enemy” "Nonviolence means avoiding not only external physical violence but also internal violence of spirit. You not only refuse to shoot a man, but you refuse to hate him." Martin Luther King Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them to become what they are capable of being. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe An eye for an eye only makes the whole world blind. Mahatma Mohandas K. Gandhi
