Remarks by Ted Samuel at Suvash Darnal Memorial

I am honored and humbled to have worked with Suvash as a JMC Fellow for the Advocacy project in 2007. In months that I spent working with him, I knew I was witnessing the efforts of a passionate human rights activist who had the vision to shape the direction of a new nation and the determination to better the lives of countless marginalized people. Suvash was an historic leader. And even now, a month after his passing, I am overwhelmed by the powerful legacy he has left us. :: MORE
