Main Point of Sears Talk Was to Share Experience in Bosnia and Women's Efforts for Peace
By Priscilla Sears | November 12, 1997To the Editor: Your article about talk at the Women's Resource Center about my experience at The International Women's Peace Initiative in Bosnia and my meditation on the role of women in peacekeeping and peacemaking contains several errors, reducing my remarks to simplistic distortions. I did not characterize the war in Bosnia as a civil war, nor did I say that the genocide in Bosnia was prompted only by a desire for a "pure" Serbian race.
