While every day is the apt time to fight injustice in all its forms, Together We Remember intends to spend this April, or Genocide Awareness Month (GAM), inspiring education, action, and remembrance. GAM is a month where, as a united front across the world, we remember the lives lost to identity-based violence throughout history, and work harder than ever to prevent it from ever happening again.
If there is one thing that the summit made clear, it’s that we’re all in this together. One way or another, come 2048, the pen of identity-based violence will have written its last name. The list of victims will become a fossil: perfectly preserved, but never to grow again. At long last, the words we hear so often will ring true, loud and clear: Never forget. Never again.
