They are members of September 11th Families for Peaceful Tomorrows, an advocacy organization founded by family members of victims of the September 11th attacks on the United States,
Azim N. Khamisa
is father of Tariq Khamisa. He is Chairman, CEO and Founder of the Tariq Khamisa Foundation. TKF (www.tkf.org) was founded in memory of 20-year old Tariq, who was murdered in January of 1995. Mr. Khamisa reached out in forgiveness to the grandfather and guardian of his son’s killer, Mr. Ples Felix who now serves as Vice Chairman of TKF. He has committed his life to defeating the continuing cycle of violence amongst the youth.
AMV celebrates resilience and believes in non-violent solutions to achieve global peace. AMV strives to create a culture of peace, acceptance, mutual respect and harmony. It is in this spirit that we are delighted to introduce three people who turned their pain into something that heals and creates peace, rather than continuing the pointless cycle of violence. They are ordinary people whose choices make them extraordinary heroes.
