Confronting Systems of Violence

Description

In his overlooked yet remarkable life as a peace activist, political scientist, teacher, and preacher, John Swomley was involved in many of the significant social struggles of the 20th century. With a clear and forceful style, the reader gets beneath the “official” history of this tumultuous period to understand the peoples’ history where the efforts for peace and justice were waged, often against enormous odds and at times with surprising success.
