Screening this new 10-minute video is a great way to engage your congregation or community in dialogue at a time when the media is reporting on Dick Cheney’s pro-torture memoir and some Members of Congress want to allow interrogators to use abusive interrogation techniques. The video presents perspectives from several faith leaders about repentance, redemption and healing the soul of our nation from the brokenness resulting from the use of torture. Within that context, the video addresses the need for accountability for U.S.-sponsored torture and provides information about NRCAT’s call for a Commission of Inquiry. An interfaith discussion guide provides a suggested outline for a one-hour adult study session. Watch the video, order the DVD and download resources. |
