I remember her story in the development, it was great demonstration of good will and simple effort to change things for better. Unfortunately, she was writing to Andropov only. From my point of view ( well confirmed by recent decades) she should be considering of what her country was doing wrong as well. Now, her legacy - unfortunately, things did not change much. I am deeply concerned, for instance, by the activities of the organisations like this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Endowment_for_Democracy They are spending out tax money to support a very questionable organisations abroad with no public control over the spendings, goals and personalities receiving these grants. It is government, tax money, laundered over private fund... Soft power in action to promote democracy or corruption? What do they bring to these countries? Chaos, I think, pursuing a single world power influence everywhere, dressed in democracy suite. Leading should be done by example, not by bribing or enforcement. After all these years, it would be very interesting to know her mom thoughts, thanks for doing it. I may also suggest to ask your reader what questions they would like to be asked...
