Dr. King’s six principles of nonviolence and six steps of nonviolent social change are outlined on the King Center website in a document entitled “The King Philosophy,” http://www.thekingcenter.org/king-philosophy. Briefly, nonviolence (1) is not passive, but requires courage; (2) seeks reconciliation, not defeat of an adversary; (3) is directed at eliminating evil, not destroying an evildoer; moreover, nonviolence entails (4) a willingness to accept suffering for the cause, if necessary, but never to inflict it; (5) a rejection of hatred, animosity, or violence of the spirit, as well as refusal to commit physical violence; and (6) faith that justice will prevail. 13.
