I’ve read about this twice today; thanks to you, TC, now I have read it myself. Absolutely worth the read, and absolutely worthy of both thought and action.

Thank you so much, TC, for posting the entire speech here. It has the power of a woman who faces prison and/or execution each and every day of her life.She, who moves through life armored with her "layered ethics", could not be more clear about what we have to make happen.

Will winning the Nobel Prize help to protect her?--not sure. You are right, yes, she is a Saint! as well as a Prophet...a measuring point for the rest of us and one who calls us back to right relationship for the common good. She is not giving up; we can't either!

Thanks again.

You’re absolutely right, Maria Resa is a saint. She is what a prophet looks like in the 21st century. She is spot on about Facebook; it is a danger to the world. Mark Zuckerberg needs to go.

Love this post TC.

Would have missed it amongst the rushing flood but thanks to the credibility you and many other posters have built up here it makes it easier to scan for favourites. …admittedly at the cost of many other well thought out original and cogent posts.

Beautiful, she absolutely nailed it, I too believe that there are saints among us, people for whom the truth is the motivation for living, Maria Resa is solidly in that camp. Thanks for posting her speech 🙏

Yes her words ring true— online violence is real world violence—she’s so courageous and she so deserves this prize but what happens to her later?

“Journalists…the old gatekeepers. Technology…the new gatekeeper.” It’s spoken of as if it is a living entity with a heart. It’s not. That’s why the Zucks behind it hide so well. Anonymous violent intent and discord.

Thank you, TC! I listened to her first and then read the words of this amazing woman and human being. Yes, indeed, she comes as close as one can get to being a living saint and prophet.
