Taped in Oklahoma City on the tenth anniversary of the Murrah
Federal Building bombing, "Beyond Retribution" captures a roundtable
discussion with those who lost family members as a result of 9/11, the
Oklahoma City bombing, and the war in Iraq. It is moderated by Father
Michael Lapsley, an Anglican priest who lost his hands to a letter bomb
sent in response to his work against apartheid in South Africa.
Together, they explore the individual responses of those most
closely affected by terrorism, violence and war, and offer ways to move
beyond retribution and towards sources of real peace. "Beyond
Retribution" is 37 minutes in length, comes with a list of discussion
questions, and is suitable for any age (no harsh images or language).
This Book tells the story of how we came together to form
the group, and how we have struggled to keep our losses from being used as a justification
for further violence and terror. Written by David Potorti, along with original
essays from members of the group including Ryan Amundson, Myrna Bethke, Derrill
Bodley, Kelly Campbell, Colleen Kelly, Rita Lasar, Kristina Olsen, Andrew Rice,
and Terry Rockefeller.
