I want to invite you into a conversation around exploring ideas with me.

Reconciliation Is Possible

One of the more important books I have ever read is No Truth Without Forgiveness, by Bishop Desmond Tutu.  The book shares the process South Africa went through to engage reconciliation after apartheid.  Tutu and Nelson Mandela came up with the idea for a new process of reconciliation that brought the offender and defendant together.  As long as the offender admitted his crimes, the state would grant amnesty.  It was a brilliant move on the part of the Commission.

Now there making a story that shares some of the process towards reconciliation.  And I like it.  It’s called Invictus.  I’ve never heard of the story but it’s being directed by Clint Eastwood.  It has the look and feel of a Gran Torino type movie.  Should be awesome.
