Nonviolence gets invoked as moral high ground, as a strategy, as identity, even as an accusation. But what does it actually require? And does it work?
Philosofarian’s Seth Tichenor returns to Fort George for the next Wit & Wisdom talk to ask Is nonviolence the most evolved response to injustice, or is that just a story we tell ourselves? How is it different from pacifism? And in a world saturated with violence at every scale, is nonviolence a genuine option?
Doors open at 6pm with food and beverages available via the Taproom window, talk starts at 7pm. All ages welcome and never a cover.
