December 10, 2014 18:22

Satyarthi's stirring speech, now in English...

"I refuse to accept that all the temples and mosques and churches and prayer houses have no place for the dreams of our children.

"I refuse to accept that the world is so poor, when just one week of global spending on armies is enough to bring all of our children into classrooms.

"I refuse to accept that all the laws and constitutions, and the judges and the police are not able to protect our children.

"I refuse to accept that the shackles of slavery can ever be stronger than the quest for freedom.

I REFUSE TO ACCEPT."

Rousing applause as Satyarthi continues...
