An expert in the field offers a mindfulness-based approach to nonviolent action, demonstrating how nonviolence is a powerful tool for personal and social transformation
Nonviolence was once considered the highest form of activism and radical change. And yet its basic truth, its restorative power, has been forgotten. In Healing Resistance, leading trainer Kazu Haga blazingly reclaims the energy and assertiveness of nonviolent practice and shows that a principled approach to nonviolence is the way to transform not only unjust systems but broken relationships.
With over 20 years of experience practicing and teaching Kingian Nonviolence, Haga offers us a practical approach to societal conflict first begun by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. during the Civil Rights Movement, which has been developed into a fully workable, step-by-step training and deeply transformative philosophy (as utilized by the Womens March and Black Lives Matter movements). Kingian Nonviolence takes on the timely issues of endless protest and activist burnout, and presents tried-and-tested strategies for staying resilient, creating equity, and restoring peace.
An accessible and thorough introduction to the principles of nonviolence, Healing Resistance is an indispensable resource for activists and change agents, restorative justice practitioners, faith leaders, and anyone engaged in social process.

MUSHIM PATRICIA IKEDA, Buddhist teacher, author of I Vow Not to Burn Out, and racial justice community activist

Healing Resistance is an incredibly authentic and embodied work. Author Kazu Haga shepherds us by his own example. This work is an example of loving inquiry and analysis, not ideology or theory, toward the healing of people and planet. With empathic humility and generosity, he shows us that the nature of being human means that reconciliation, peace, and wholeness, in all of their variegated forms, are always a possibility.

REVEREND LYNICE PINKARD, pastor, activist, and author of Revolutionary Suicide: Risking Everything to Transform Society and Live Fully

SUSAN BURTON, founder of A New Way of Life Reentry Project

Few people are as grounded in the tenets and traditions of principled nonviolence as Kazu Haga. Any of the thousands of people that Haga has trained in nonviolence can attest to the great wisdom, care, and talent he brings to his craft. He is informed by a rich spiritual practice, deep practical experience in social movement organizing, and years of careful research into nonviolent campaigns. It is a rare combination that he brings to his writing, and we can all be grateful that Kazu has given us this offering.

PAUL ENGLER, coauthor of This is an Uprising: How Nonviolent Revolution is Shaping the 21st Century

At a time when the literature is often divided between advocates of nonviolence out of principle and advocates of nonviolent action for strategic and utilitarian reasons, Kazu Haga puts forth a compelling argument as to why both are important to challenge the forces of oppression and build a better world.

STEPHEN ZUNES, professor of politics and international studies at the University of San Francisco and author of Nonviolent Social Movements

Healing Resistance is a powerful window into the world of Kingian Nonviolence. In these times, when our species is weak in its reciprocity with Mother Earth and with each other, this great tradition illuminates the need for reconciliation, struggle, and personal transformation. Haga honors this tradition by sharing a moving account of his personal journey with us.

CARLOS SAAVEDRA, founder of the Ayni Institute

If anyone ever thought that enough has already been written about nonviolence, they havent read Kazu Hagas book. What this book accomplishes is nothing short of making nonviolence accessible, hopefully to many more people than have previously engaged with it. This is a clear and friendly book, never compromising depth for simplicity, nor losing courage because of the core optimism woven through it. We learn about Haga himself, about the world, about power, about conflict, and about how all of us can increase our capacity to respond effectively to a world gone awry.

MIKI KASHTAN, author of Reweaving Our Human Fabric: Working Together to Create a Nonviolent Future

Kazu Haga has written an insightful, thought-provoking exploration of the impact of violence and the personal and political power of nonviolence based on his own experiences. This practical guide for building Beloved Community can inspire activists, organizers, and trainers to go deeper in our efforts.

JOANNE SHEEHAN, War Resisters League

As a serious meditator, Hagas sharp insights point to poignant details about the subtle reality of nature, building on a new human dimension to the adage hurt people hurt people; healed people heal people by adding and embodying with his fierce care loved people love people.
