The life of the creator of nonviolent communication Marshall Rosenber, with Matthew Parris

Comedian and writer Tony Hawks chooses the creator of nonviolent communication, Marshall Rosenberg. With Matthew Parris. From 2016.

Marshall Rosenberg was the stern-faced creator of nonviolent communication, a man who spent his life finding ways to eradicate hate. 

Often armed only with his trademark giraffe and jackal puppets, Rosenberg toured the world teaching a new way of speaking. Language was key, but to discover the meaning of the puppets you'll have to tune in.

A sceptical Matthew Parris presents while David Baker of the London School of Life fills in the biographical gaps.

Produced at BBC Bristol by Miles Warde
