You can't exonerate without breaking some eggs

In September 2008, I photographed a traditional Acholi reconciliation ceremony for six senior commanders of the Lord’s Resistance Army. The ceremony focused on Opio Makasi, the Senior Operations Commander and close confidant of LRA leader Joseph Kony. The ceremony requires that the men walk barefoot over an egg, an act which symbolizes exoneration for past wrongdoing. The ceremony is part of Mato Oput, an age-old, traditional process that aims to repair communal relationships after serious transgression.
