Berkeley, THE THIRD HARMONY gives viewers the deep awareness that nonviolence is a serious field of study, or in the words of Mahatma Gandhi, &#8220;Nonviolence is not the inanity people have taken it for.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This is echoed in the film by Tiffany Easthom, Executive Director of the Nonviolent Peaceforce, when discussing the power of unarmed civilian protection as a tool in the nonviolent toolkit: this is not about being &#8220;peace activists who hope that unicorns and rainbows will rule the world one day. This is hard work.&#8221; Changing the story that makes violence of all kinds seem practical in our world is hard work. But it&#8217;s certainly time for this change to happen.<\/p>\n<p>Available for educational use: www.bullfrogfilms.com\/newreleases.html<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;To be nonviolent is be an artist of your humanity.&#8221; &#8211;Ali Abu Awwad, Palestinian nonviolence leader and founder of the Taygheer Movement<br \/>\nDrawing on interviews with veteran activists like Civil Rights leader Bernard Lafayette, scientists like behaviorist Frans de Waal and neuroscientist Marco Iacoboni, Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal, political scientist Erica Chenoweth, futurist Elisabet Sahtouris and others, THE THIRD HARMONY will help the general public, often at a loss to understand the protests occurring in many cities, to better grasp just what nonviolence is and how it works. The film also delves into the important role that nonviolence plays in the wider struggle to develop a new theory of human nature, how every one of us can add to our personal growth and fulfillment while benefitting society through the use of this time-tested power.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Bullfrog Films presents&#8230;The Third Harmony<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/bullfrogfilms\/videos\/329061021767568\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/bullfrogfilms\/videos\/329061021767568<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelnagler.org\/the-third-harmony\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/michaelnagler.org\/the-third-harmony\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mettacenter.org\/blog\/beyond-the-storm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/mettacenter.org\/blog\/beyond-the-storm\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/iFzbifp5yQE\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Michael Nagler, co-founder of the Metta Center for Nonviolence, discusses \u201cNonviolence \u2013 The New Story of Human Nature.\u201d He argues that so many of the problems we face \u2013 war, poverty, isolation, and the climate crisis \u2013 have their roots in an old story about the universe: purposelessness, scarcity, competition, and inevitable violence. Citing the convergence of modern science and the world\u2019s great wisdom traditions, he argues for a new story: the universe is conscious and purposeful, we are spiritual beings, and cooperation and collaboration are our natural relationship.
