restorative narratives
Explore forgiveness through real-life stories
We believe stories can transform how we see ourselves and relate to others. That’s why we share restorative narratives—real-life stories of people and communities learning to rebuild after difficult times.

"But my anger is positive – it gives me the drive to continue what I’m doing."
Cathy Harrington
"Lots of things in life are senseless. There’s so much we can’t explain but we need to be able to love the questions."
Christopher Emmanuel
"My anger broke and tears filled my eyes as I cried the tears that I’d never been able to shed as a child."
Ginn Fourie and Letlapa Mphahlele
