    Principle of Peacemaking #6: “Truth Heals”

    “If you’re the victim of a terrible atrocity, you know you can’t get justice – you can’t bring back the dead. It probably helps a bit to see the people responsible suffer, but what drives you really, really crazy is the feeling that other people are not seeing or acknowledging or validating the pain, and what you’ve experienced, and especially the truth of what you’ve experienced.” – Gabe


    Gabe is a law professional who tells us about his work seeking truth and reconciliation in the Solomon Islands. Gabe describes the stories he heard on his journey, and teaches us the value of witnessing others’ suffering, defining a collective truth, and being honest with ourselves, even when it hurts. Today’s principle of peacemaking?: Truth heals.
