Watching the young people leading protests in Nepal has me thinking about the first time I was there in 1990, when I was 17 yrs old. At that time, Nepal was still ruled by a king, but the people were demanding a constitutional democracy.

Happy 90th to His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.
For over 60 years, he’s led with grace, grit, humility, and humor—guiding Tibetans through exile, stepping down from political power so they could lead themselves, and ensuring China can’t control his reincarnation.

June 15 - 16, 1996. San Francisco. The first Tibetan Freedom Concert brought 100,000 people together—and the world listened. Celebrate by sharing this post with the name of your favorite freedom song. Because songs move people, and people move history. #TibetanFreedomConcert #TibetWillBeFree
