For years, people have recognized the power of sports to bring people together, to cross social and religious barriers and to promote peace.Bishop Sunday Onuoha dedicates a whole chapter in his book to this phenomenon. The good Bishop is particularly impressed by the power of football to touch young people's lives.
The venerable, world-wide media outlet Voice of America recently took a look at a large movement of soccer-playing youths promoting reconciliation and understanding among young people.
Do you think something as simple as a soccer game can create positive social change?
