young ambassador of goodwill (raw)

Samantha Reed Smith June 29,1972 - August 25, 1985 Wiki: Samantha was an American schoolgirl, activist and the youngest piece ambassador in time of the Cold War. She became famous being only 5 y/o after writing a letter to Queen Elizabeth II and 5 years later to Soviet leader, Yuri Andropov. She was invited to Soviet Union in July of 1983. Samantha became an inspiration to other children ambassadors. She died in a plane crash on August 25, 1985. Note: This is not me being biased as Russian speaker & someone born in USSR. I’m just fascinated with this child who wanted to do something for world peace at such young age ! I don’t see cultures as different, I see one peace for all !!!
