Olympics

So since the olympics are going to be held in China, I think this is an opportunity for the world to shed light on the violations of human rights that are going on there. I was reading an article and it was discussing some protesting and unrest going on there by the monks. Many people have been fighting for Tibet for a long time and I think having the olympics there is a chance for these people--so I encourage all non-violent protesting going on with that.
When I lived in new york city I got the unbelievable chance to hear the Dalai Lama speak in Central Park--it was an amazing experience, and I hope in the time to come people (meaning the media) will give some attention to what is going on there!
