I am inspired by the perseverance of Solidarity in Poland. whose members do not relent in their struggle. I am fired by the courage of Afghans. who continue to fight a hostile occupation force. I struggle along with Lithuanians. Latvians. and Estonians who demand greater cultural autonomy. On a smaller scale. I have adopted a "refusenik" in the captive nation of Georgia. Victor Popovsky and his family have tried. since 1974. to assert a basic right of all people. the right to emigrate and live in a land of their own choosing. I have petitioned the Soviet Ambassador and the Kremlin to set this family free. In their fight. large or small. these people will not yield.
