A Chance For Peace

A friend of mine, a fellow Village Volunteer volunteer, has also been touched by Kenya. Like me, Tyler has been infuriated by the media's reaction to and the pervasive misunderstanding toward the post-election situation. He is going back next month with other volunteers to try and remedy that. I earnestly pray that he succeeds in making a dent in the most resilient disease of Western civilization -- apathy.

A documentary about peace and crisis.

In December 2007, suspicions of corruption grew as

the announcement of the presidency in Kenya was

greatly delayed. Violence erupted and to date,

approximately 500,000 Kenyans have become

displaced refugees and 1,200 are confirmed dead.

A CHANCE FOR PEACE will ask, “Is Peace possible?”

while giving Kenyans the chance for their voices to be heard and to

broaden the canon of information on an issue mischaracterized by the

Western media as simply “another African ethnic cleansing.”
