  1. Mindwalk; a fascinating conversation about the physics of nonviolence and its practical implications for the global problems at hand; based on a novel by Fritjof Capra.
  2. A Force More Powerful; acclaimed PBS documentary showcasing the successes of nonviolent movements in India, Nashville, South Africa, Poland, Colombia, and Denmark.
    A Force More Powerful tells one of humanity's most important and least understood stories — how, during a century of
    extreme violence, millions chose to battle brutality and oppression with nonviolent weapons — and won. "These are
    powerful stories, about truth overcoming lies, love dissolving evil, and life eclipsing death," said former president Jimmy Carter of the documentary. "Nonviolent valor can end oppression, and the world of the 21st century will be safer, freer and more humane if it heeds the lessons of this series."
  3. A Time for Justice; comprehensive documentary by Charles Guggenheim on the nonviolent struggles of the civil rights movement in America
