Due to a computer error, the blog entry written for today did not save and there is not enough time to re-write it. The author would like to apologize and will attempt to work on it again tomorrow.
Suffice it to say, words do not really do justice to the powerful experience our group had as we heard a direct, thoughtful, and detailed narrative of a much lesser known perspective of this conflict. It is a lesson to us all that there are always two sides to every argument and who are we to judge what we have not experienced for ourselves. Thank you to Tom Roberts, William “Plum” Smith, Tom Winston and Noel Large for taking their time to tell us about their personal experiences from this period in Northern Ireland, as well as discuss their meaningful work with community centers, restorative justice programs, and conflict transformation/peace building.
Again, the author apologizes and please look for a more detailed entry soon.
