A man on a bicycle has paused to display two signs, which read: “Voice of America will not be silenced” and “Radical by basic decency.” Many U.S. flag-bearers are to his left, including one holding an upside-down flag, the official signal for distress.

"#Switzerland-based International Association of Conference #Interpreters (AIIC) issued a statement saying, 'For decades, #MIIS was the quintessential #ConferenceInterpreting training in the United States, and in recent years, it had also become the last comprehensive #conference program. This is part of a larger program affecting conference interpreting #globally, but with its own national undertones.

“'With this decision, there will be no conference #interpreter training in the entire U.S.… given the gravity of the situation, we urge the MIIS president and board of trustees to reassess.’”—from a report by Sara Rubin in #MontereyCountyNow

We'd miss MIIS! Favorite bike advocacy memories include welcoming MIIS students to #Monterey County, at MIIS Information Fairs and in the wider community. https://bikemonterey.org/82313-welcome-to-monterey-institute-of-international-studies-and-bike-friendly-monterey-county.html https://bikemonterey.org/international-national-state-and-regional-collaborations-bicycling-monterey-teams-up-with-others-on-bike-advocacy-efforts.html
