Samad Khurram, Harvard student and an active SAC member refuses to receive award from US Ambassador in protest against killings of Pakistani people.
It makes me feel very proud that when the rules of my country are busy pleasing their American masters, there exists fresh blood who has the guts to do what is just. The principled stand that Samad has taken should be an eye-opener for the rulers of this land of the pure. When a student who awaits a bright career ahead is concerned for his fellow citizens being killed by the US, why are the rules of Pakistan being blind to this ?
Samad has proved his dedication and commitment to Pakistan several times since the imposition of emergency in Pakistan. He took a semester off then to play his role in resistance against Musharraf and the movement for restoration of Judiciary. He has been super active since then. Last week, he came back from the US to attend the long march.Watch it on YouTube.
