By The IRC

Tune in to PBS tonight for the second episode of "Women, War and Peace," the five-part series that spotlights the stories of women in conflict zones. 
 
Tonight's documentary, "Pray the Devil Back to Hell," features Nobel Prize winner Leymah Gbowee. It tells the astonishing story of the Liberian women who took on the warlords and regime of dictator Charles Taylor in the midst of a brutal civil war, and won a once unimaginable peace for their shattered country in 2003.
