When our local right-wingers make racist remarks on our newspaper's comment section and/or appear at our US Rep to harrass him, yell at him, rattle him I have a hard time not responding in kind. I think of the great 'clowns versus Nazis' response and the non-violent responses of all those amazing people during the civil rights battles and I want to respond that way. I know many civil rights marchers got trainings from SNCC, Fellowship of Reconciliation and I think that's what I need so I don't respond from this gut-churning place. But it's just not available here.
How can we peacefully, maturely, effectively, successfully respond?
I am hoping that together, we can generate some ideas, concepts that are all good.
I intend to put myself in a place where I can defend my new Dem Rep.
