Dubey (pronounced Du-bay) was one of five whom the magazine honored. “This is just validation that good is recognized and that what we did that night was good,” Dubey said Saturday as his phone continued to ring with more congratulatory calls. Just before Dubey opened his home to them that night in June, police had surged forward into the group, pushing the protesters with shields and spraying gas. As they tried to run, Dubey opened his front door and yelled for them to come inside. Dubey guided the demonstrators to his basement kitchen and back patio, where they began to wash out their eyes with water and milk.
