If you think world peace is a naive concept, Paul K. Chappell's very
existence will give you pause. It's not enough to say that Chappell - a
West
Point graduate and Iraq War veteran - is a soldier turned peace
leader.
Experiencing a traumatic upbringing and growing up mixed race in
Alabama,
he's a young man forged by violence, rage, and racism into a living
weapon
for peace. By unlocking the mysteries of human nature, he shows how
the
muscles of hope, empathy, appreciation, conscience, reason, discipline,
and
curiosity give us the power to end the wars between countries, our
ongoing
war with nature, and the war in our hearts.
