This article was adapted from a speech delivered on May 19 at the University
of Chicago.
Most of the students here [at the University of Chicago] were born after
1990. In China, we call people like you "90hou," meaning the post-90
generation. You share one thing in common -- you are in synchronization with
latest developments of the world.
For my generation, by the first time I heard of an operating system called
Windows, Mr. Bill Gates was already the richest man on earth. Now trendy
Chinese wait on tenterhooks for every iPhone launch just like here. "Fast &
Furious 7" was released in Beijing cinemas at about the same time as in
Chicago.
Since so much information is shared among young people all over the world
today, shouldn't the younger generation be more open and more ready to
understand each other? Isn't it possible to find a new way to build a global
order capable of ensuring lasting peace?
When your President Obama spoke here on a Father's Day a few years ago, he
said the most important thing for parents is to pass along the value of
empathy -- the ability to stand in somebody else's shoes; to look at the
world through their eyes |
