Watch the one-hour lecture on youtube by Gene Sharp "The Power and Potential of Nonviolent Struggle." Then, write a two- to three-page reflection. What is your personal reaction to the ideas in the lecture? You may wish to address, for example, questions the lecture raises for you, objections you have, applications you see of the ideas, relations between the lecture's ideas and other material from the course, etc. You should summarize the main ideas enough to give context to your comments, and cite specific claims from the lecture to support your interpretation. However, you should focus on exploring your own ideas rather than simply repeating the speaker's ideas. You will be graded on whether you gave evidence that you watched the whole video carefully and that you thought about the material for yourself.
