Why We Must Teach Peace.
McCarthy, Colman
Educational Leadership, v50 n1 p6-9 Sep 1992
To teach peace through nonviolence is to give youth a chance to develop a philosophy of force. Those who prefer violent force must justify deaths of this century's 78 million war victims--500 percent increase over last century. Describing his nonviolence classes at various Maryland schools, "Washington Post" journalist urges students to pressure schools to adopt peace studies curriculum. (MLH)
