Former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said all she wanted to do for most of the past week was "curl up with a good book with a dog and never leave the house again."
Clinton made her first public appearance Wednesday night in Washington after conceding the presidential election to Republican Donald Trump a week ago.
She appeared at the Children's Defense Fund's Beat the Odds program, which honored five young people who overcame tragedy to become excellent students and are on their way to outstanding professional careers.
Clinton admitted that coming to the event "wasn't the easiest thing for me." But she said the five young men and women the fund was saluting never gave up after facing violence, poverty and abandonment.
前民主党总统候选人希拉里·克林顿说,过去的一个星期里,大部分时间她都“只想窝在家里,身边守着狗,读着一本好书,再也不要出门”。
自一个多星期前克林顿在大选中输给共和党候选人川普并发表败选讲话以来,希拉里·克林顿星期三晚上首次在华盛顿的一次活动上公开露面发表讲话。
这次活动由儿童保护基金的战胜逆境项目举办,表彰五位克服不幸,学业优秀,前途光明的年轻人。
希拉里·克林顿承认,来参加这次活动对她来说不是一件容易的事。但是她说,儿童基金会表彰的这五位年轻人面对暴力,贫穷和遗弃,也从未选择过放弃。
