The University of California at Berkeley is starting to post its classes on YouTube. One of the most interesting to me right now is PACS 164A: Introduction to Nonviolence. It's the first of two entire series of courses on the topic, a total of fifty-six class sessions between the two of them. The class description: "An introduction to the science of nonviolence, mainly as seen through the life and work of Mahatma Gandhi. Historical overview of nonviolence East and the West up to the American Civil Rights movement and Martin Luther King, Jr., with emphasis on the ideal of principled nonviolence and the reality of mixed or strategic nonviolence in practice, especially as applied to problems of social justice and defense."
