•we shall not forget•
My faith in a generation willing to speak up for themselves and willing to stand up for the betterment of their own country, has been restored. My faith in the sovereignty of the people has been restored.
Yet, my heart bleeds most for those that never made it back. They will not be a statistic, but a legend that I will speak of for generations to come.
I am proud of my people, and for as long as I stand, I shall play my part…The revolution SHALL be televised.
