View video of my reading from the book at Harvard Book Store in Cambridge, MA. I discuss human resilience and the potential for psychological self-healing - lessons learned in my 25 years of working with refugee populations and torture survivors. I describe the connections between humiliation, depression, and violence; and the work that remains to be done by acknowledging and supporting the relationship between personal healing, social healing, and social justice.
