Brigid shares an article by Polly Mann regarding cluster munitions that suggests the company should be producing dolls. When a child goes to pick up the doll, it won't explode, unlike the cluster bombs left to litter the child's countryside. Brigid offers a handmade doll as the first gift in honor of Gandhi. |
