Title:	The Rev James Lawson: The Non-Violence Struggle 12-04-2007 1 of 2
Author:	Lawson, James M., 1928-
Description:	Includes descriptive metadata provided by producer in MP4 file: "The Non-Violence Struggle - Video - The Rev James Lawson The Non-Violence Struggle 12-04-2007 1 of 2." Video of a class session, beginning in the middle of a lecture on methods of nonviolence. Lawson charges that American foreign policy (for example, in the War on Terror) is based in a cultural refusal to communicate with "the other," or even acknowledge their personhood (he offers the willingness of Ronald Reagan to meet with Mikhail Gorbachev as a happy exception). He suggests that the invasion of Iraq is yet another example of the will to dominate and control. There is some student participation.
