QuestionWhat does courage mean now? Sarah FrancisAnswer
Anuradha Mittal: Well, for me, I think the definition of courage hasn’t changed just because we are in a different time. Courage has always meant the same thing, which is being able to stand up to corruption, to oppression, to exploitation. But I think courage also means not just to struggle for something which affects one directly, but courage is really about struggling also for the rights of the others. That’s what takes real courage. But also for me personally, I feel courage is also not just about changing this world. It is really also about ensuring that the present day world has not changed me. So for me, more and more courage has come to mean that.
