Ukuvuka eHalifax namuhla kuvuka enye into entsha.

Bengibuka ngamehlo e-Cape Bretoner uMary Janet ebhaka uphayi we-butterscotch ngenkathi kubulawa abantu abaningi ngaphandle kwekhishini. Kwakunomdubuli obalekwayo ezindaweni zasemakhaya esifundazweni.

Izithombe zesikhulu se-RCMP esincane nesikhanyayo sibambe izandla zezingane ezimbili, sihola ikilasi lezingane likhanya esikrinini. Kancane kancane izinga lokudutshulwa lisakazeka njengegazi lezisulu, lichitheka siqaphele.

Singakuqonda kanjani okwenzekayo? Singasibeka kanjani lesi senzo sodlame esingenangqondo ngaphandle kosizi olusinakekelayo ngesihe? Ngabe ngesinye isigameko sokubulawa kwabantu besifazane? Ukuveza esinye futhi isifo esiqhubekayo kulo mhlaba othandekayo? Ingabe kwakungelesinye isenzo sobukhosi obumhlophe? Ngubani owakha umuthi wokugomela ukuqhubeka kobudlova obusuka ekunganweni kothando, ekuxhashazweni ngokudutshulwa kwabantu abaningi kuya ekuqothulweni kohlanga?

Imibuzo yethu ingabukeka yehlukile, kepha umbuzo, kufanele. Njengoba usuku luqhubeka nemindeni ilila, ukuseshwa kwabezindaba, osopolitiki bephendula nemiphakathi ikhathazeka, wenzeni? Ngazizwa ngilahlekile, kodwa ekugcineni ngaba matasa. Ngangiphuthelwe isabelo sami sokuqala senkambo eku-inthanethi enikezwa yi World Beyond War. Umbuzo obekufanele ngiwuphendule ngothi: "Yiziphi izingxabano ozibona ziphoqelela ukumelana nokungabi nodlame njengenye indlela yobudlova?"

Nakhu engikubhalile: Ukuthula nokulunga okusebenzayo kungumnyombo wokungahambisani nobubi. Ake siqale lapho sikhona. Ngifuna ukwamukela ukuthi ngibhala ngisuka endaweni engabanjiswanga yokhokho yabantu baseMi'kmaq egxilile ebudlelwaneni obuqhubekayo phakathi kwezizwe ngokuthula nobungani.

Izolo, lapha eNova Scotia, ukudubula okukhulu kakhulu emlandweni waseCanada kwenzeka futhi okungenani abantu abangu-18 bafa ngesihluku. Ukuphikisana kwami ​​kokungaziphikisi kuyazikhulumela. Kukhuluma ngenxa yamathuluzi awadingayo - inhliziyo, izwi nolimi. Amathuluzi odlame awavuli lesi sikhala. Ubudlova buthulisa ingxoxo. Asikho isikhala sengxoxo ekugcineni kwesibhamu noma, ngalolo daba, ekugcineni kokuthola isheke lomgwaqo. Ukuphatha isibhamu, ibhomu yenuzi, induku yokulwa, noma ngabe kuyini, kudlula isikhathi soshintsho olunokwenzeka. Asikho isikhala sezingxoxo, imibono yabesifazane kanye "nawo wonke amazwi asetafuleni."

Ukuphikiswa okungathathi hlangothi akuthatha, kuyanikeza. Ubudlova obudalelwe kuleli bhola lomhlaba obujabulisa, obunikeza impilo, bufundise futhi busisekele - ukuthi udlame lusongela ukuthatha, ukusula nokucisha amaphupho wezingane zethu.

I-nonviolence ukuphindisela akupheli ekuhlulekeni. Izenzo zobudlova ziyizenzo zokwehluleka. Lapha, umuntu owabulala ngokungahleliwe wabeka usizi nokudideka esikhaleni sokukhula okunethezekile emiphakathini yethu yokuzihlukanisa.

I-nonviolence yisenzo somcabango - udlame luyisibonakaliso sokukhawulelwa komuntu.

Ukuphikiswa kwe-nonviolent kuyavela, kuthola izindlela ezintsha zokumelana. I-Guardian ibonisa ukuthi lo bhubhane usiphokophela kanjani ekwandiseni uhla lwezishoshovu. Lezi zindlela ezintsha zokumelana zelula ingaphambili lesenzo kanye nobubanzi bokuhlanganisa. Udlame lubukhali - luhleli emahholo amnyama okushisekela izwe nokulwa ngamasu empi ngokuhaha ngamandla - uhlelo oluyisipoko olambile.

Yini enye ehlukile ezenzweni ezingaphenduki? Yini esiyikhethayo uma singakwamukeli ukungathathi hlangothi? Lesi isihluthulelo. Enye indlela yezwe lokungabekezeleleki nobulungiswa ihlala imijondolo enkanjini yababaleki, iyodwa futhi ibanda futhi isaba. Enye indlela yokungaphenduki yokufa ifa emigwaqweni yedolobha elithule ngombani wobuso bezingane zakhe phambi kwamehlo akhe ebole naphakade. Enye indlela ibhukuda ngethonya lokugcina le-dorsal fin emachibini okuyisusa eceleni kwemigodi yegolide kanye nesihlabathi samatshe.

Njengoba uGorbachev abhale ngokuhlakanipha, "Impi yehlulekile" futhi, njengowesifazane nengcindezelo, ibamba udlame oluqhubeka lubhebhethekisa imimoya engenathemba yokuphelelwa yithemba.
