Many of you may know of John Paul Lederach's work in World Peace.
During half-time of the September 22 Notre Dame game, the following 2
minute "Fighting Irish - Fighting for Peace" played on National TV. I
thought you may be interested in seeing it.

I understand that NBC made the film and accompanied Lederach to
Colombia for much of the filming. NBC wanted to be accompanied by
armed security. Lederach said "no." They agreed.
