"Nonviolence means
avoiding not only external
physical violence, but also
internal violence of spirit.
You not only refuse to
shoot a man, but you
refuse to hate him."

Who said that?

"We will consider ourselves
successful when we have helped
a high-risk teenager in danger
of turning to the streets make
a U-Turn to a better future and
a U-Turn to a better Life."

(U-Turn 4 Life, Inc.)

What happens when a high-risk inner city youth drops out of high school? Where do they go? What do they do? Unfortunately, the answer for many is to turn to the streets. They steal and they sell drugs to survive. They turn to gangs for acceptance and protection. They turn to gangs expecting a better future. Unfortunately, the only future they will get is one of violence and danger. The only future they will get is jail or death. This is a turn they will regret for the rest of their lives. Its is a turn they must not make.
