According to Smith "the fact that we were unarmed was critical to the

process, and put responsibility for the safety of the Peacekeepers in the

Also, because we were unarmed we couldn't scare anyone into doing anything,- [( p" s- J$ b2 ^
so we learned to communicate instead. That's where music came in."
