February 21st is a special day. We stand with Bangladeshis and people across the world as we commemorate International Mother Language Day. In honor of Ekushey, we are honored to share this special music video featuring our own USAID Mission Director Kathryn Stevens and several of our Bangladeshi and American staff as we pay our respect to the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the Bangla language. Lyrics and composition by Pratul Mukhopadhyay Instrumental arrangement and vocals by various USAID Bangladesh staff
