Edited to preserve each author’s message, the volume presents youthful anxieties, fears, hopes, and convictions drawn from western Bosnia. Across personal reflections, the text argues for civil courage as the ability to voice defiance, resist oppressive pressure to conform, and practice justice through reasoned action. It frames learning as preparation for real life change.","Spirit of Bosnia / Duh Bosne  \nAn International, Interdisciplinary, Bilingual, Online Journal Međunarodni, interdisciplinarni, dvojezični, online časopis  \nMoving Forward: Essays On Civil Courage  \nVarious Authors  \nPrologue – Svetlana Broz  \n“Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift.” – Anonymous  \n“You must be the change you want to see in the world.” – Mahatma Gandhi  \nThe Schools for Civil Courage, organized for 218 young people between the ages of 15 and 25 by the GARIWO non-governmental organization with the help and support of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (DEZA) and the Royal Norwegian Embassy in the summer of 2006, gave rise to this book of selected thoughts from participants who found ways to articulate their anxieties, fears, doubts, longings, hopes, desires, needs, and also opinions.  \nThe essays, chosen by a committee, have been edited to preserve each author’s thoughts and message while representing a stylistically coherent whole for easier reading. The first readers and the critics of this book will, indeed, be its coauthors.  \nThe handwritten manuscripts of these essays may seem fragile to the superficial observer, but to the more knowledgeable reader they are powerful messages of young people who have known or have just discovered what they want, and, more importantly, what they do not want. Moving Forward presents the messages and opinions of the young people of western Bosnia. You, who have learned – go out and teach those who still do not know; you, who do not yet know – seek out those who do, and all of you together, call on your teachers, instructors and professors to learn with you and from you.  \nYou are living in a society in which you first must define and clearly state what it is you do not want in order to come to what it is that you want. Only when you articulate what it is that you are against can you seek ways to give voice to your feelings. Every act of your defiance is an act of civil courage, because the authorities which are pressuring you to conform will not stand by peacefully and watch. That is why you must cultivate your own civil courage if you are going to voice your defiance and say: enough’s enough. You took the first steps in the classroom and at the School on Civil  \nCourage. The next step is putting what you have learned into practice. The Latin saying: repetitio mater studiorum est (repetition is the mother of learning) holds true here.  \nKeep in mind: every time you win a struggle against a negative authority, you will understand that he or she is just a human being just like you, in fact more vulnerable than you are because he or she is in the wrong. Your arguments are the truth and uphold the cause of justice, while their only argument is force, which is not as powerful as it pretends to be. So do not fear those who despise you yet depend on you. Wise men said long ago that reason rules, while force rolls logs. Do not allow yourself, with the powers of reasoning you possess, to become one of the logs.  \nWith this book you have shown that you are not afraid of saying what you think; now you  \nneed to prove that you do not flinch from your friend’s invitation: No longer will I live a lie! I  \nwill not. I cannot! Enough is enough… I, too, want to fight! And I will fight… But I cannot do it alone… I need a friend… I need you! And I need your friend! Use your rights! Stand up on your own two feet! You have what it takes! May the horizon be too small for your dreams! Start packing your suitcase today. So much awaits you beyond the door! Move forward   move forward    \nHave you the right not to respond? November 2006 – Sarajevo  \nI . Pin No Labels on Me – My Nation Is Humanity – Marija Vranić  \nBetter keep yourself clean and bright;  \nyou are the window through which you must see the world. George Bernard Shaw  \nMan was created free—is free  \nE’en though he were born in shackles.  \nFriedrich Schiller  \nI am Marija Vranić and I defy all labels!
