    Student Activist: to Ask Politicians Sensitive Questions | Cross-cultural Conversation | 1115, 2024

    Me and a Palestinian student discussed her courageous attempt to ask sensitive questions to a politician. What mental preparations did she need before asking these questions in the public?

We can make small changes in this hopeless world.
