Lessons to learn

Yuri Kochiyama comments at the Bay Area memorial for Marilyn Buck:
My friendship with Marilyn began over 30 years ago. After she went to prison I heard the stories of her bravery and her commitment to the struggle. She took strong principled stands against imperialism and racism. I began writing her letters and later visiting her in prison.
Even with all that she endured Marilyn didn’t turn bitter, she remained positive. She supported fellow political prisoners. She managed to stay informed and in touch with the fight for just justice all over the world. No bars could restrain her heart.

we could all learn something from both Marilyn and Yuri.
I love your heart and style.

JB
