RPCV Micah Schaffer recounts the moving
story of Amadou Diallo, a well educated Guinean immigrant
to the U.S. killed by NYPD and of Jesse Thyne, a Peace
Corps volunteer living in Amadou's family home and
village until died in a car accident. This documentary
is both a celebration of their lives and beautiful
spirits and a call to learn to see people as our brothers.
