The audio documentary also includes vintage recordings of the Nelsons themselves. \nAfter decades of involvement in the civil rights and antiwar movements\, Wally and Juanita Nelson lived just south of the Vermont border in Franklin County\, Massachusetts starting in 1974. They lived there until Wally died in 2002 and Juanita in 2015. They had a significant impact on our region through their advocacy of local agriculture\, land trusts\, war tax refusal\, and simple living. \nNonviolence was the umbrella concept that underscored everything they did. For the Nelsons\, nonviolence represented so much more than a tactic to be used in a conflict situation. While it could include freedom rides\, boycotts\, lunch counter sit-ins\, war tax refusal\, and other forms of noncooperation\, it was also a way of life\, a way of being in the world\, a way of relating to people and to all of nature. It was a measuring stick they used to evaluate their actions and choices. Nonviolence encompassed dignity\, humanity\, truth\, justice\, and freedom and it was a lens through which to view the violence of our modern-day economic system. \nFor more information\, contact Bob Bady at: bobbady@gmail.com.
