Former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was shot and killed today after a campaign rally in Rawalpindi. Bhutto only returned to her native Pakistan two months ago after a long exile. She was campaigning on behalf of her People’s Party in the country’s upcoming Parliamentary elections.
Bhutto spoke at Roanoke College on September 17th, 2002, one year after the terrorist attacks of 9-11. The speech was part of the College’s Henry Fowler Lecture series. The Virginia Podcasting Network now brings you the complete audio of that speech. She is introduced by John Day, the Roanoke College’s Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean of the College.
