 <\/p>\n

Iwapo<\/span> njia ya mahujaji si rahisi kamwe, je! Tim Gee ni mwanaharakati anayeheshimika wa haki za binadamu wa Uingereza na mwandishi wa <\/span>
\n Kukabiliana na Nguvu: Kufanya Mabadiliko Kutokea<\/span>
\n<\/i> (2011) na<\/span>
\n Hauwezi Kuondoa Wazo<\/span>
\n<\/i> (2013). Katika kitabu hiki kipya, onyesho la kibinafsi la jinsi anavyofafanua na kuingiliana na ulimwengu kama mpigania amani, Gee anaendelea kuhojiwa kwa mikakati ya kushinda mabadiliko ya maana bila vurugu. Maelezo ya utangulizi huwapa wasomaji historia fupi ya msingi ya Jumuiya ya Kidini ya Marafiki na kanuni ambazo kwayo inajulikana kimataifa. <\/span><\/p>\n

Katika sura ya kwanza mwandishi anatathmini majaribio yake ambayo hayakuwa ya mafanikio kila mara ya kujiepusha na vitendo vya unyanyasaji wa kimwili na matusi wakati wa miaka yake ya shule ya mapema ambapo dhihaka, aina za uonevu, na shinikizo la marika zilikuwepo. Hadithi ya didactic ya Gee inawaalika wasomaji kutafakari jinsi wao wenyewe wangeweza kuitikia mashindano kama hayo ya siku za shule na ushawishi wa miaka hiyo ya ujifunzaji iliyoletwa baadaye kwenye njia yao ya kiroho kuelekea amani. Kuhusiana na ushuhuda wa Quaker kuhusu amani, kazi ya Margaret Fell, George Fox, na Sylvia Pankhurst inajaribiwa, kama vile Vita vya Mwana-Kondoo. <\/span> mradi na msimamo wa Martin Luther King Jr. na Bayard Rustin.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gee asema kwamba kila mmoja wetu ana jukumu katika kusitawisha hali ambapo amani inaweza kusitawi.<\/span><\/p>\n

Utamaduni hutengeneza lugha, ambayo nayo hutengeneza namna tunavyofikiri na maamuzi tunayofanya. Kwamba tunazungumza kuhusu ‘kutotumia nguvu’ hudhihirisha kwamba katika utamaduni wetu, vurugu ni jambo la kawaida. Haturejelei vita kama ‘kutokuwa na amani’ . . . Kujitolea kwa amani kunajumuisha kujitolea kwa usawa, haki ya kiuchumi na ulinzi wa mazingira. <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ingawa anakubali kwamba usuluhishi wa Quaker unatokana na hali ya kiroho, Gee anasisitiza kuwa utulivu na majaribio ya wapinga amani hayaeleweki, yaani, utulivu sio kukataa migogoro.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sura zinazofuata huchukua maovu ya vita na njia nyingi za amani. Ili kuunga mkono nadharia yake kwamba utulivu ni kazi inayofanya kazi (sio ya kupita kiasi) na kwamba wapenda amani wanajishughulisha kwa dhati na changamoto kwa maoni potofu yaliyopo kuhusu amani, Gee anatumia vyanzo mbalimbali ili kuonyesha ufanisi wa mbinu zisizo za vurugu za (re) kutatua matatizo ya dunia. Katika sura ya 3, ”Usiue,” Gee anakanusha ”Nadharia ya Vita Tu” ambayo Thomas Aquinas aliisasisha na kuitangaza katika karne ya kumi na tatu na ambayo bado inatumika hadi leo. Kwa kuwa \u201cvita vya haki . . . humaanisha baraka za Mungu,\u201d Waquaker hutafuta nuru ya ndani na kutafakari kile ambacho Yesu angefanya. Kutotumia nguvu, kama inavyoonyeshwa katika kampeni za nguvu za watu za kuigwa za Gandhi, Cesar Chavez, na Greenpeace, hufanya kazi vyema zaidi wakati\u2014kupitia ukosoaji wa kimuundo\u2014inabuni njia mbadala inayofaa kwa vita na ukosefu wa haki wa rangi: \u201cKwa kiasi ambacho matumizi ya mkakati usio na vurugu hayakusababisha kila kitu ambacho vuguvugu lilifanya kazi, na pia mbinu za vurugu hazikuweza kufikia malengo hayo.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Hata mabadiliko ya hali ya hewa, ambayo athari zake za kimataifa hazijasambazwa kwa usawa, huashiria ”kuongezeka kwa jeuri ya ukosefu wa usawa.” Kwa sifa yake, Gee anataja jinsi harakati zisizo na vurugu na Quakerism zimeathiriwa na chuki dhidi ya wanawake na kutozingatiwa kwa usawa wa kijinsia. Ingawa hailinganishi amani na ujamaa, Gee anatuuliza tuzingatie kwamba mielekeo mingi ya watu wa mrengo wa kushoto haifasiri katika upande wa kushoto kuwa umoja wa pacifist. Kesi ya mwanaharakati wa Quaker Nozizwe Madlala-Routledge katika chama cha African National Congress na Chama cha Kikomunisti cha Afrika Kusini ni kielelezo cha unyumbufu wa kisiasa wa wapigania amani ambao ”wanaweza kushiriki katika vuguvugu ambalo lina sehemu zisizo na vurugu na zenye silaha.” <\/span><\/p>\n

Kufuatia mijadala juu ya uhalifu wa mauaji ya halaiki na kiwango cha mafanikio cha upinzani wa raia ulimwenguni pote, Gee anatoa hadithi (\u201cLakini ungefanya nini ikiwa . . . .?\u201d) kuhusu misimamo isiyo na vurugu ambayo raia wa kawaida (sio lazima watangazwe kupinga amani) wamechukua kwa ushindi kuzuia vitendo vya unyanyasaji vinavyoelekezwa kwao. Gee anahitimisha kwamba uwepo wa Mungu ndani huelekeza ushuhuda wake na, kupitia mazoezi, hutengeneza njia ya amani ndani yetu sote. Pacifism, kama fundisho la maadili, na kanuni zinazounda, kwa Gee, ni sehemu na sehemu ya safari yake ya kiroho isiyoweza kujadiliwa. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5090,"featured_media":3082198,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","categories":[9920,10002],"fpb_issue_category":[10259],"class_list":["post-3125312","fpb_book","type-fpb_book","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mapitio-ya-kitabu-cha-quaker","category-vitabu-vya-septemba-2019","fpb_issue_category-septemba-2019"],"yoast_head":"\nKwa nini Mimi ni Pacifist - Friends Journal<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.friendsjournal.org\/sw\/book\/kwa-nini-mimi-ni-pacifist\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"sw_KE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Kwa nini Mimi ni Pacifist\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Imeandikwa na Tim Gee.
