Campaign Nonviolence is a long-term movement for a culture of active nonviolence, connecting the dots between war, poverty, racism & environmental destruction.
When fear escalates, so does the pressure to respond in kind.

But across the country, people are choosing a different path—not denial, not passivity, but disciplined nonviolence.

They are leading with love, even when it’s costly.

There are 2,300+ federal agents occupying the Twin Cities right now. It’s obscene. It’s un-American. It’s a clear sign of fascism. It’s vindictive and retaliatory. It’s an attempt to scare the resistance into submission.

It won’t work.
