Nonviolent resistance

Nonviolent resistance uses disciplined refusal, disruption, and direct action without inflicting physical harm—not out of moral purity but as a strategic choice that often carries moral power, exposes injustice, and builds broader coalitions than violent conflict can. It requires tremendous courage and planning, and its success depends on whether the audience witnessing the resistance has enough conscience to be moved.
