		<description><![CDATA[In previous posts I have discussed ways photography often contributes to &#8220;othering&#8221; and, conversely, the power it has to bring people together.  A new organization, the International Guild of Visual Peacemakers, began as a group of photographers and designers &#8220;devoted to peacemaking &#38; breaking down stereotypes by displaying the beauty of cultures around the world.&#8221;  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Restorative justice (RJ) is often associated with mediation and Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR).  I was reminded of this at the Conference of the European Forum for Restorative Justice in Bilbao, Spain, this spring.  Victim offender “mediation” was the practice most commonly mentioned and the lines between ADR and restorative justice often seemed unclear.

		<description><![CDATA[“Gazing into one&#8217;s own eyes is an interesting experience.  I&#8217;d think there could be great therapeutic value in having some conversations with oneself, someone who appears to be a sympathetic listener (provided by a sympathetic photographer). “
This was Phil Easley’s response after I posted his portrait montage on my photography website.

If it does convey truth, whose truth is it?  These questions have been with photography since its origins.  They have become more pressing with the advent of digital photography and the ease with which a digital image can be manipulated.  They are [...]]]></description>
