I got this from Amnesty International:
Dear Tracy,
We host. You ask. She answers.
Amnesty International USA is deeply honored to host a once-in-a-lifetime town hall event featuring Burmese freedom fighter, Nobel Laureate and Amnesty Ambassador of Conscience, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi.
Rights Generation: Daw Aung San Suu Kyi Inspires the Next will take place in front of a live audience of young activists at the Newseum in Washington, DC, on Thursday, September 20, from 11:30AM-1PM ET.
Ask Daw Suu your question about human rights and she may answer it live on stage in front of a global audience.
This is Daw Suu's first visit to the U.S. in more than 20 years, after spending years in detention and house arrest. She credits the Amnesty movement with helping to secure her release, and says hope for the future kept her going during those dark and uncertain times.
That's why she wants to hear from you, the next generation of human rights activists. Together she seeks to ignite and fuel a passion for human rights work.

We hope that you will be with us in the years to come…and that you will help us be the country where hope and history merges." -- Daw Aung San Suu KyiBe a part of this historic conversation with one of the most revered human rights leaders of our day.
