Transcript (by Patricia Trudel): ."When we came back from Juba peace talks with a certain project called Ododo Wa which we here have today called Our Stories. We started doing small things among which were memory quilts, hum body mapping. That one helped us to really journey through what we went through and identify what issues that affected your body. That opened my heart and I started feeling like I should write a book to show like, the effects of war, what happens when someone passed through war. That was the year I met Grace. Erin Baines came to me and asked me when I knew Grace. And I told her: "I know her well". From then we started seeing that we are not living in solitude, but we had like other counterparts elsewhere."
