Faith based Non-violent Resistance in an Age of Constant War

 

The most unliky duet onsite share their experiences and reflect on war, faith and non-violent resistance.

Ciaron O’Reilly has spent his adult life within Dorothy Day’s Catholic Worker movement and Ben Griffin is an organiser with Veterans for Peace UK. Together they have been arrested for blockading Downing Street; witnessed for peace outside the Ministry of Defence; and resisted militarism at various army recruitment centres. They have also organised solidarity for imprisoned war resisters Bradley Manning and Michael Lyons, and for WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange.
