Genre Learning Comment by Richard Parke I was moved to tears by this. I feel like I am witnessing the courage of a pioneer on the level of Jesus, MLK Jr, or Gandhi who is courageously championing the rights of oppressed beings who deserve life and respect, defying the tide of the wicked acts of profiteers. 2013-08-01T18:22:40Z Comment by apasolini Spot on! 2013-08-01T00:05:01Z
