Aimee Ginsburg Bikel

As both a writer and a public speaker, I have been given the remarkable privilege of doing what I love best: connecting to people everywhere. After living in three continents and calling them home, I really do feel that the whole world is my home, and that the people of the world are my family. As a journalist, I've covered natural disasters, terrible violence, and religious-ethnic strife.  These have been heartbreaking to witness. But what have really stayed with me are the resilience of the people I have met, their courage and ingenuity, their insistence on beauty, and on love. I have had the great honor of seeing real changes in law, public policy, and in every day lives of people as the result of my work. I have noticed that I love the process of getting to know someone intimately, for the purpose of an interview or profile, as much as I love standing in front of an audience and relaying my messages of hope, responsibility, and our shared humanity. I guess my writing and my speaking are two sides of that same coin: interconnection.

Thank You!

To US Congresswoman Sydney Kamlagar-Dove

So honored to receive this recognition from the US congress in honor of our work on behalf of the TBLP for interfaith harmony and peace. And thank you Mahomed Khan, our long-time brother in this work. Especially when peace, shalom salaam seem out of reach, we take risks and hold on to each other across the divide. There is no other way!
