Chapter 5 – Truth-telling

Chapter 5 focuses on the importance of truth-telling and confronting the other for the process of healing.   Many events from recent history are lifted up as successful examples that prove this point – the Truth & Reconciliation Commission in South Africa, Somaly Mam fighting to end sex-trafficking, and Liberian women becoming peacemakers and ending a brutal civil war.   The following videos may be helpful in exploring these stories.
