Recenzii

"Greensboro's Truth and Reconciliation process was a crucial step into something new for America: it recognized that so long as the darker events of our communal past lie buried and unacknowledged, they act like toxic waste, seeping continually to the surface to poison the present. This book is a very human and insightful record of one city's courageous attempt to expose and cleanse its buried shame. It has important guidance and encouragement for other potential TRC-type processes in the USA."-Rev. Dr. Peter Storey, Professor Emeritus, Duke University Divinity School, former South African TRC selector "A mid-sized town in America decides to confront its painful past, which harkens back two decades and stretches beyond the zone of comfort for many. This book, both unerringly honest and wonderfully accessible, opens us to a fascinating process which brought South Africa, Peru, and Northern Ireland to North Carolina. Do we have something to learn from our past? We certainly do. Is confronting the truth easy? Absolutely not. This terrific book shows us just how, and why."-Priscilla Hayner, author of Unspeakable Truths: Facing the Challenge of Truth Commissions "A great, optimistic story. It will be read widely and will drive more and more communities to engage in the hard work of establishing and supporting TRCs."-Alfred L. Brophy, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill "The story and experiences detailed in these pages serve as an excellent blueprint for future communities across the world, including the United States, interested in gaining reconciliation and hope for facing the future-together."-North Carolina Historical Review "Highly recommended."-Choice
