Ms. Sendler is an angel amongst us. They exist and she is a perfect example.
Ayan Hirsi Ali is one heck of a woman with quite a story to tell. She has been on my radar since I lived overseas. When Theo van Gogh was killed, the letter pinned to his body with a knife was threatening her life since she dared to stand up for the rights of Muslim women. Here is a link to the movie she wrote that was directed by van Gogh if anyone is interested.
SUBMISSION (YES, he was killed over a ten minute movie written by a Muslim woman. It still freaks me out.)
Aung San Suu Kyi
is another woman worth reading about. She has been detained for a total of ten years over the past three decades for daring to stand up to a military dictatorship.
Yes, the angels among us exist.
