A Peace Investment

Fambul Tok is an stunning independent film about reconciliation in post conflict Sierra Leone. For a $1M investment thousands of people in villages all over the country have engaged in forgiveness projects and reconciled with murderers and rapists, making them partners in recreating communities. Their cultural context is that every human being matters and is salvageable; and hanging onto hate and revenge destroys the community.

Alternatively the world court has spent $20M trying the top 6 perpetrators of the conflict! They're not done.

Check it out at fambultok.org.

Peace!
