Cesar Chaves said “I am convinced that
the truest act of courage, the strongest act

of manliness is to sacrifice ourselves for
others in a totally nonviolent struggle for

justice,” and, apocryphally, stated that
he was a violent man learning to be non-

violent. Cesar Chaves wins the award for
honesty about the male propensity for

violence and male blood lust and how
he, as a follower of Jesus, is seeking

a better way. Is that the way of Sophia?
