Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
It’s been more than six weeks since peace activist (and Northern Virginia resident) Tom Fox was abducted in Iraq along with three other members of his Christian Peacekeeping Team. We get an update on the negotiations for their release, and gain insight into the Quaker faith, as they explain how pacificists maintain empathy and non-violent beliefs when a loved one’s life is in danger.
Guests
- Beth Pyles Member of the Christian Peacemakers Media Team
- Paul Slattery Member of Langley Hill Friends Meeting; Also a member of Tom Fox's support group
