The eleven SIPS 2021 Peace & Global Citizenship, and four Seminar II students, were fascinated by the challenges posed by peace scholar and activist Dr. Stuart Rees in his latest book Cruelty or Humanity (2020). He accepted our invitation and was our guest speaker during a profoundly meaningful Zoom session that we will remember forever. In addition, he published an article about this virtual experience at Soka University, and we are thrilled to be able to share it with you here. ---Dr. Olivier Urbain---
