One year after September 11,
Into the Heart of Terrorism with Nonviolent Communication

Do you want a way to understand terrorism?
Do you want a different way to respond to terrorism?
Do you want a way to break the cycle of violence?

Nonviolent Communication is the language of the heart that focuses on our feelings and needs with a purpose of creating a connection where everybody's needs are valued. Marshall Rosenberg, Ph.D., rediscovered this language about 35 years ago. Using it allows you to:

* Transform potential conflicts into peaceful dialogues
* Break patterns that lead to anger
* Speak your mind without creating hostility (nonjudgmental)
* Seek solutions that work for everyone
* Learn how to ask for what you want using clear positive language

Rodger Sorrow and Kathi Aichner will present a basic introduction to Nonviolent Communication and offer alternative ways to understand and respond to terrorism.

PLACE: The Peace Center, 8124 W. Third Street, Los Angeles - free parking in the back
