Marv Davidov.
JPST 340 (450).

Marv Davidov, freedom-rider from the 1960s, long-time practitioner of Active Nonviolence especially against the manufacture of cluster bombs. Marv founded the Honeywell Project that for twenty years demonstrated outside corporate headquarters of Honeywell International in Minneapolis urging them to stop making cluster bombs.  When Honeywell sold its military contracting division to Alliant Tech Systems, Marv continued the campaign against Alliant Tech, urging them to "convert from arms production to civilian production with no loss of jobs."  

He is personally acquainted with nearly every American activist and is our main source of "Living History" for progressive movements in the U.S.  

Marv has made numerous trips to Cuba with Global Exchange. He is currently writing his memoirs with the encouragement of the Minnesota Historical Society.  He regularly team-teaches JPST 340 (formerly 450) with Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer.
