Bill Moyers Journal
Friday, Janaury 15, 2010 at 9PM on PBS (check local listings

America has committed billions to escalate military action in
Afghanistan and Pakistan, but humanitarian and bestselling author Greg
Mortenson argues that there's a better path to peace: building schools
and nurturing local communities. Mortenson, who has worked for 17 years
in the region, is the author of the world-wide bestseller, Three Cups of
Tea and a new book, Stones into Schools. Both books tell the remarkable
story of Mortensen's efforts to build dozens of schools in some of the
most lawless and remote regions of Afghanistan and Pakistan.
