Thank you so much for recognizing this: "Once you start doing these things that are all about reconciliation, and dialogue or making a political statement like singing on the bridge, you're again saying 'Oh look, how special, we've got the Serbs and Albanians together, you're not Dan on the guitar - no, you're a Serb now again',” said Ms Hassler-Forest. “So you're undermining the whole thing that you're doing here, which is by investing in people's personal development and giving them meaning outside of this crazy political situation, you're treating them like normal human beings, who can associate with other normal human beings, and that's why it works." Wendy, spot on! Here's to seeing human beings able to play (and work) together as human beings. <3
