In this podcast we talk about the sixth principle of Kingian nonviolence, "The Moral Arch of the Universe Bends Towards Justice. I consider it the foundation of the other five principles because if you don't believe that there is a force in both the Universe and each of us that is moving us toward creating a culture of peace and justice then it is hard to practice the other principles.

If we are to create a culture of peace, a culture where the inherent worth and dignity of every being is honored and respected, where conflicts are resolved nonviolently and everyone experiences a sense of safety, security and prosperity it has to come from the bottom up. And its foundation has to rest on nonviolence. So, it is up to ordinary everyday people like you and l to live our lives more n...
