A Note to My Daughter

Dear Bumo,

When you grow up, you shall know the meaning of your name: "Do not acquiesce! Speak up against injustice!" At first you may feel confused, burdened, overwhelmed. But then, understanding that in giving you this name daddy has also given you support and solidarity, you shall be proud and confident, encouraged and empowered. You shall not acquiesce. You shall speak up against injustice. You shall fight for yourself. And not only for yourself, but for all the humiliated and the injured, the disadvantaged and the bullied, the silenced and the excluded. You shall fight for a better world. And you shall have one.

Love,
Daddy
