Speaking Truth

"It is not fun to speak the truth.  A lot of people tell me ,'you're so lucky.  You're speaking your truth, you're living your dreams'.   I want to tell you, it's not easy and it's not fun.  And if you really want to walk the leader's route you have to have the courage to speak out.   I lost friends who were sick and tired of me talking about the rape camps in Bosnia.  'Go get a job for God's sake, what is this thing.'  Zalnab Salbi
