Ten People of Non-Violence to remember and follow

Thanks so much, Carol for this lovely email and to hear that you are a Quaker, working for peace.  Brilliant!  I love the Quakers and their great work.

All my life I have been renouncing war and the weapons of war.  I was a member of the Fellowship of Reconciliation for many years as a young man, and greatly admire men and women of non-violence like Donald Soper, Dalai Lama, Desmond Tutu, Martin Luther King Jnr, Mohammed Ali, Bruce Kent, former ROI President Mary Robinson and, of course, the mighty powerful Gandhi.  I'm a financial supporter of the Campaign Against the Arms Trade.

Now discovered two more - two Irishmen, Daniel O'Connell and Michael Davitt who also espoused non-violence (p 28, 'Everybody Matters', by Mary Robinson)
