Maris Hanis & Sam Bell: Have a Hand in Stopping Genocide
Loading...
Uploaded by 24hoursfordarfur on Jan 5, 2008
"You can be an Oscar Schindler. You can be a Paul Rusesabagina. You can have a hand in stopping genocide." The philosophy that individuals can make a difference in curtailing atrocities undergirds the work of the Genocide Intervention Network, whose mission is to empower people with the tools to stop genocide. The organization uses advocacy tools such as 1-800-GENOCIDE and www.darfurscores.org in order to educate citizens and advocate for change, challenging a status quo in which elected officials assume there is zero political cost for inaction on genocide.
Author Bio: Mark Hanis is the founder and executive director of the Genocide Intervention Network (GI-Net), an organization whose mission is to empower citizens and communities with the tools to prevent and stop genocide. Sam Bell is the Advocacy Director at Genocide Intervention Network. Both Hanis and Bell graduated from Swarthmore College in 2005.
