Citizen Activist - Tribute to Stéphane Hessel

March 2, 2013

Stéphane Hessel was a member of the French Resistance, a veteran diplomat, human rights activist, and author. His controversial 2010 manifesto "Time for Outrage” - a protest against social injustice and the growing gap between rich and poor - became an important inspiration for the Occupy movement. Stéphane Hessel has now died at age 95.
