The groundwork for reconciliation is truth-‐telling. Whose story gets told? Whose is left out? These questions shape a community’s narrative and influence systems and relationships. Whether in post-‐genocide Rwanda, in Ferguson, MO, or in Southern Illinois, acknowledging the truth of multiple perspectives is essential where divisions persist. Join us as Fr. Kamana shares his story and invites participants into dialogue.
