Congratulations Rusty, my former dissertation supervisor, my advisor over the years of York PhD, and my professor from whom I took two courses... A dedicated educator and feminist.
Indeed "The struggle continues,
to find one's voice, use one's voice, and make our voices heard," as you
said.
"Enough of talking,"
Voltaire's Candide says, "now we must cultivate our garden."
People of Turkey, women in particular,
need to be resilient and even somewhat hopeful as we go through very difficult
times. Your speech is a wonderful source of motivation for all of us. Your
kindness, generosity, gracefulness have been resonating all over the globe,
thanks to the students who got to know you and worked with you. I can say much
more but I will pause.
Below is the link to all of the
webcasts. Scroll down on the page, find the one from June 22 at 3:30 (marked
Ceremony 7) and go to minute 58:00 to listen to Rusty's speech and a brief introduction..
