Nonviolent resistance is a method of social change that seeks to achieve goals through peaceful means rather than using violence. It often involves protests, civil disobedience, and other forms of peaceful activism to challenge unjust laws or practices. This approach is based on the belief that moral power and the collective will of the people can create significant social and political change. Prominent figures like Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. have exemplified nonviolent resistance in their struggles for justice and equality.
