From the RNC to the DNC and BEYOND

We delve into the realm of US national politics. First we speak with Elliott Adams, of Meta Peace Team, about his trip to the RNC. Conflict is normal and even healthy, but violence is not. Hear Elliott tell us why he was at the RNC (Republican National Convention) and what he did there. Next we speak to Netra Halperin, a prior Bernie Sanders Delegate that now supports Green Party Candidate, Jill Stein. She discusses her experience inside the DNC (Democratic National Convention) as well as the future of the Bernie movement and where that momentum might take us. Lastly, we play an interview with Joe Zemeck recorded at the DCN. He discusses the future of the Bernie movement as well and then why Roadmap resonates with him.

Michael and Stephanie then pull it all together, discussing the roadmap and long term strategies –including the 500 year plan- for positive change. To close, Michael Nagler serves up some nonviolent news and resources from around the world in Nonviolence in the News.
