Michael Nagler’s film The Third Harmony advocates for nonviolence as a way of life. The film urges us to intentionally select a frame of mind that prefers collaboration and cooperation over fear, hate, competition, and violence as a means to stabilize our democracy.
Professor Barbara Bezdek, retired from the University of Maryland School of Law, where she taught for 33 years, will lead the discussion. She has studied nonviolence intensely over the last few years and developed a training program about nonviolence.
Register in advance for the Zoom screening of The Third Harmony on June 21, 7 pm.
