Edith Mirante drew attention to Burmese human rights abuses in the early 90s, before anyone else did, distributing xerox copies of reports, some of which she wrote herself, with her mother as her only helper.

Bravo Edith, you give us Strength.

Excellent movie--Merchant Ivory--Before the Rains--probably best movie set in India 1937--
