Hassan is a poet, a peace and human rights activist, and a nonviolence trainer and community organizer. He obtained his Level I and Level II Kingian Nonviolence certification from Dr. Bernard LaFayette Jr. when NVLP/COPA offered these advanced nonviolence training classes in Tucson in 2010 and 2011. In 2013, Hassan started work as part-time staff with NVLP. At the beginning of 2015, Hassan took over as NVLP Program Manager when Ann Yellott “retired” from that position in order to become Grants & Program Coordinator for COPA. Hassan has a special gift for inspiring youth to want to learn about Kingian Nonviolence and commit themselves to nonviolence as a courageous way of life and powerful strategy for social change. Hassan is dedicated to carrying out Dr. King’s final instructions to NVLP’s mentor, Dr. LaFayette that the next campaign must be to institutionalize and internationalize nonviolence. Hassan wants to see Kingian Nonviolence institutionalized within school systems throughout Tucson.
