I’ve been thinking about my time with a Guantánamo Bay detainee who was a Uyghur (from
China) but released to Albania.

The admin says this move is to "reestablish the warrior culture."
Isn't Milk’s perseverance + unwavering service to the public, in the face of violence, the epitome of what it means to be a courageous warrior?

3/4: Not to mention, Milk received personal attacks, death threats and harassment throughout his life; he was eventually assassinated inside San Francisco City Hall in 1978.
