Description
In this second interview, I speak to Jo Berry - a remarkable woman who befriended Patrick Magee, the IRA volunteer who bombed Brighton in 1984 and killed her father. We speak about what it was like to go through losing her dad in such circumstances, about her emotional journey, about how she went looking for peace and reconciliation in communities torn apart by conflict, about her Building Bridges for Peace project, about meeting Patrick Magee for the first time, about the extraordinary friendship they established, and about what she has learned - and what lessons there are for all of us.Please help our media project grow here: https://patreon.com/owenjones84Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast.
