Turning Weapons into Peace: My Interview with Scotty Utz

I inter­viewed Sep­tem­ber FJ author Scot­ty Utz about Guns-to-Garden Move­ment. Fas­ci­nat­ing wit­ness and some heart­break­ing sto­ries. From my intro:

Nations shall not lift up sword against nation, nei­ther shall they learn war any more. And this may seem like a won­der­ful lyri­cal kind of state­ment. But what if we actu­al­ly took it seri­ous­ly and actu­al­ly start­ed tak­ing our instru­ments of war and turn­ing them into prun­ing hooks?
