Rachel Eryn Kalish is a peacemaker. Personally, she radiates harmony. Professionally, she has devoted decades to non-violence and was mediating conflict before the term conflict resolution existed.
Yet, today, she doesn't view non-violence as the one and only approach to global conflict. Sometimes, she has learned, force is necessary to save lives and reduce suffering. The massacre of Israelis by Hamas on October 7 is one example.
We all know the saying that violence begets violence. But are there situations in which non-violence begets violence?
This is the story of how Rachel Eryn began asking this question and listening deeply for answers.
