S4 E9 Ray Motsi - Fostering Nonviolence Across Zimbabwe’s Tribes

Rumors of Doing Good

In today's conversation, I'm joined by Ray Motsi from Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe has a complex history, marked by significant violence stemming from the colonial rule of the British Empire and the subsequent fight for independence in the 1960s through the 80s. This history has deeply influenced the culture, where violence often became the preferred means of resolving conflict. The 1980s saw the continuation of this violence, with the government using brutal methods to suppress opposition.

Amidst this culture of violence, Ray co-founded Grace to Heal in 2003, with the mission of helping people process trauma and fostering peace, reconciliation, justice, and conflict transformation in Zimbabwe. I hope you enjoy this fascinating conversation with Ray as he shares his journey of standing alongside his people as a peacemaker.
