Remembering Benazir

Fifteen years ago, the world lost a truly extraordinary woman when Benazir Bhutto, former prime minister of Pakistan, and global leader for democracy, freedom and human rights was assassinated.

I was honored and blessed to call her a friend. She is an eternal inspiration and her heart and courage remain a light in this dark world.

Many years ago, soon after her death, I launched a movement and petition seeking to have Benazir posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medal. I wrote the text of this essay and petition fourteen years ago and am still hoping and striving to one day see this special event and honor for Benazir's life, legacy and memory come to pass. If you would like to sign the petition, you can do so here: https://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/honor-benazir-congressional-gold-medal/
