Ian Macmillan Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I suspect this very positive-sounding news item may come as a surprise to many: http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/features/2013/06/2013616113641548168.html It did to me. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primrose Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 What a very passionate and courageous teacher. This to me is a good example of someone giving everything of themselves and asking nothing in return. Bravo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 That's encouraging - the news from Egypt recently has sadly tended towards the opposite direction, but it seems there is a degree of popular resistance to this move, which from other reports is backed by the government (another similar proposal was ending the regular Aida performances) http://english.alarabiya.net/en/life-style/art-and-culture/2013/06/01/Egypt-s-Islamist-lawmaker-says-ballet-is-obscene-artists-angry.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
