And now I am very interested in this new website, Women's International Perspective (WIP).  I think it will be one of the sites I look at daily now. 

Wow, what an amazing story. I'd love to see that documentary and learn more!

I want to see the documentary too!  Just have to find out how it is being distributed.  You know, you just keep thinking, where are all the people who want peace?  It is hard to stand up for it in most instances but look at this story.  And why not come from women, mothers, grandmothers?  You know that in gaza and israel there must be women who are fed up and would love to see an end to the fighting and hate.  If only something like this could become a reality there.  Women, mothers, and grandmothers relate to each other.  Doesn't matter what religion or ethnicity. 

I just went online to see if I might be able to contact the Kimball Theater here in Williamsburg about this film.  And when I went to their schedule guess what is showing?!?!  Pray the Devil Back to Hell (Jan 9 - 14).  I am definitely going to go see it.  Check the area for theaters that show artsy and documentary films.  I bet it is really making the rounds right now.

I finally made it to the theater and watched this film.  There were 2 people in an auditorium that will hold 410.  But I am glad I went.  This to me was really a tribute to Liberian women.  They were fed up with the violence and put their hearts and souls into doing something about it.  Of course there was a leader, a woman with a vision of doing something.  She started in her church and this movement spread to encompase both Christian and Muslim women.  It was very moving and hard to take sometimes when you heard a woman explaining some of the horrific things that were happening to men, women and children.  I would like to delve into it and find out how things are now; they did elect a woman president (or whatever they are called there).  It ended with a mothers' day celebration at a church.  And that brought tears to my eyes.  If you have an opportunity to see it I would recommend it.  But like I said, I would like to read even more about it and see what things are like there now.  It is an inspiration.
