Ostrolenk speaks with Susan Hackley, Managing Director of the Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School, Cofounder of Givenation.com, and former Chair of Alliance for Peace Building. In their conversation, Hackley details her documentary film project “A Child’s Guide to War,” which seeks to bridge the divide between military and civilians in America. While less than one percent of Americans have served in the military, Hackley advocates that all citizens have a role to play in the discussion of American military service and war. Furthermore, nearly two million American children have a parent who has served in war, inevitably impacting these families greatly. Through the stories in “A Child’s Guide to War,” we can begin to bridge the gap by promoting all citizens to support these families and for all parties to engage in productive conversations on war.
