Geoff Kaufman...

struggled to understand the events of 9/11/01 and his discomfort with this country's reaction to them. He turned to songs that offer insight through stories of strength in the face of adversity, and suggest avenues toward healing and transformation.

Within these songs, he finds hope of peace and reconciliation among the divided peoples of this world: between the poor and the wealthy; between those who think they are right and those who are not so sure, between those of all faiths, including disbelievers, and between those with power and those without.
