Yuri Kochyama Dies

One of the deficiencies that results from the small windows through which history gets taught is that one might never hear of powerful figures such as Yuri Kochiyama and only catches glimpses when they pass away.

An extremely modest effort to remedy RantWoman's ignorance, in the form of an obit from a couple days ago with extra impetus to publish while extending the memory of Weighty Friend who Died of Cancer
