TED Talk Tuesday
The Sisters of St. Francis’ Franciscan Peace Center in Clinton invites you to watch the TED Talk by Ari Beser titled “Facing both sides of the atomic bombs.” Ari Beser, a photographer, and recipient of the Fulbright-National Geographic Digital Storytelling Fellowship, gathers stories from both sides of the World War II conflict to strengthen the path of peace and reconciliation between the United States and Japan. Ari’s paternal grandfather, Jacob Beser, was the only U.S. serviceman to have flown on each of the planes that dropped the atomic bombs, on Hiroshima, and on Nagasaki in August, 1945. Twenty years later Ari’s maternal grandfather, introduced Ari to a survivor of the bomb on Hiroshima. This inspired him to seek out and share the testimonies of the atomic bomb survivor’ steps towards peace and reconciliation.
