The Politics of Memory and the Culture of Peace
Produced by: Deborah Amos
Rick Davis
The writing and rewriting of history is a controversial and subjective task. How do we measure suffering, and how do we move beyond the desire for personal and historical vengeance? In the Middle East, these questions bear significant weight. Producers Deborah Amos and Rick Davis explore some of the issues from an emotional and psychological point of view.
