Page 112 - Witness: Passing the Torch of Holocaust Memory to New Generations

Today, there is a generation of young people who are returning to their communities, to their universities, churches, temples, mosques, sweat lodges, synagogues, and other places of worship and meaning with one message: We can, we must, and we will do better.
These young people have matured into leaders in their own right, advocating for human dignity and com- passion in a myriad of ways – founding organizations on campus to speak out against genocide and human rights abuses abroad, fighting against discrimination, intolerance, and injustice in their own countries, and teaching the children of the next generation about what they have learned on their journeys.
These students have fiercely committed themselves to changing the world in which we live. Many already have.
