I admit, I am intrigued. I met the DL when I was a boy in Dharmsala in 1967. My family was there on a visit to the Tibetans in exile because my father, a Foreign Service officer at the US Embassy in Delhi, had arranged several million in aid to the Tibetans. Staying for several days with the family of the DL’s sister changed my outlook on life: to be among people who had every reason to be angry and were not impressed me. Still does. Want to see where this story goes.
The book seems great so far, looking forward to the next chapters! I think there's also an old tradition of peacemaking in the Americas that is much older than Gandhi and Thoreau - in fact, the Great Peacemaker of the Haudenosaunee is an inspiring example of non-violent conflict resolution (inspiring enough to the Founding Fathers)

What a great read to begin my Friday! Thanks.
Super excited for more. You go Bill McKibbon!
