Those tireless supporters have tried to make a difference one act of kindness, one act of solidarity, one act of charity at a time. And they did so because they believe that all humans are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They believe in acting towards one another in a spirit of humanity because human rights are universal, and justice and peace are human rights.”

We must ask ourselves what should we do to help prevent new genocides. It is time to embody justice in our intentions and actions.”

“We are not supposed to choose the easy solutions. We will no longer accept that our lives be blanketed with the doctrines of oppression and persecution.

So, let's roll up our sleeves and rekindle our commitment to a peace built on justice and freedom.”
