Like leaders of movements of the past, we dream big. We believe that our generation is the anti-genocide generation - a generation that can build a permanent constituency to hold world leaders accountable for their actions to stop and prevent genocide.
No one thought it would be easy to end slavery, to erradicate polio, or to give all Americans the right to vote. We know that ending genocide will be a long fight.

Don't stand by. STAND up!

When I worked in the White House, every time we wanted to do something on an issue like Congo or Rwanda, we'd turn around and hope that citizens across the country were going to push our issue forward, but there was nothing but a big, big silence. So what we need, all over this country, is people who are willing to stand up and make noise whenever there is a situation that demands the United States attention and our action.
