Linda Sartor has faced wounded places in several ways, both professionally and personally. Since 9/11/2001, she has travelled internationally in the roles of unarmed civilian peacekeeper and citizen diplomat. Her book, Afghanistan and Beyond: Confronting the War on Terror has recently been reissued in response to the draconian measures inflicted on people in that country by the Taliban. In 2020 her home and many others in her community were demolished in the Glass Fire, and she did a Global Earth Exchange in honor of what was lost.
