Peace and Conflict Resolution. Part 2
Description
With the support of the All Children Together Movement (ACT), parents created the first integrated school in Northern Ireland. With 28 students, one full-time teacher, and a principal, these parents began the process of religious and political reconciliation. This episode excerpts the documentary "Leap of Faith" which tells the story of the school and its rocky beginning. "Seeds of Peace" is another documentary that is featured. At a summer camp in Maine, young Israelis and Palestinians come together to learn and understand each other, and resolve their differences constructively. Finally, an interview with Archbishop Desmond Tutu about South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission. The mandate of the commission is to expose the crimes of apartheid and promote reconciliation in a long-divided South Africa.
