On this edition of Peace Talks Radio, we hear from people who chose to physically stand in the way of war. Volunteering to serve as a “human shield” is an intense act of self-sacrifice. But those who have done it say it‘s saved many lives. Producer Andrew Stelzer speaks with WIlliam Powers, who journeyed to Chiapas, Mexico where the Zapatista movement had issued a call out for international volunteers to protect them from state violence; and to Donna Mulhearn, who made a last minute decision to travel to Baghdad just as the country was preparing to be bombed.
History
Good Radio Shows, Inc. was founded in May of 2003 by broadcast veteran Paul Ingles, who wanted to create a place of support for educational public interest media programs made by himself and other producers. In a broadcasting career that began in 1975, many of Paul’s programs and reporting had already covered topics that Good Radio Shows, Inc. was pledging to include.
The series PEACE TALKS RADIO is the organization’s anchor program. Created by Ingles and Suzanne Kryder in response to the terrorist attacks on the U.S. in 2001, the series is devoted to conversation about peacemaking and nonviolent conflict resolution strategies that can be used to reduce conflict in daily and in the society at large.
