Do the Right Thing
This blog comes out of a desire to encourage others (and myself) to take a step back from our tired debates over policies of protection and humanitarian issues and begin a new dialogue. These exhausted debates have a tendency to drown out the humanness of such matters, clouding our vision, and allowing us to forget our purpose and responsibility to each other as neighbors. It seems that we as an international community all too often lose sight of what ought to inform our actions and interactions: our shared humanity. It is my hope that this blog will offer a perspective which attempts to find the humanity in the midst of politics and power, and considers how we might use the latter to protect the former.
