Thanks to all i-ACTivists who joined us during the 10 day trip and followed each action. If you have compiled the list of words from the daily actions as outlined here, submit it to day10@stopgenocidenow.org. It doesn’t matter if your lists are incomplete! We will be sending out e-certificates and t-shirts.

For those who have previously tried to submit, we apologize if the emails to day10@stopgenocidenow.org bounced back. The problem has been fixed, and we hope you will resubmit. Thanks for your patience!

It was a busy day yesterday! Gabriel, Connie and Yuen-Lin arrived home safely in time to watch i-ACT featured on San Francisco’s local ABC news last night (video and news article), as well had their question to the candidates answered in the CNN/YouTube presidential debate!

We are now sitting in the calm of our hotel in N’Djamena. These ten days of i-ACT were so full of experiences and emotions. It is not easy to digest it all. On the physical side, it was exhausting, our marathon of traveling, visiting, editing, writing, and all the rest. In my spirit, though, I feel more committed to doing better in standing with the people of Darfur and working with them in bringing protection and peace to their land.

I have to thank so many people that helped us out here on the ground, and I’m afraid to leave anyone out.

As with last i-ACT, our friend Ali took care of us and was our voice and ears in so many places.

In N’Djamena, even before we got out here, Ann and Djerassem are always wonderful in helping us prepare for our trip. When out here, it is always a pleasure to see them, and Ann gives a great interview!

In Abeche, Victorien is amazing at facilitating our passing through and making it to the camps. Our driver, Ali #2, was a great hand behind the wheel, and we enjoyed his company.

The good people at Camp 1 gave us a home for the first week, so that we were able to put up the first days of i-ACT from the camps.

What can I say about Camp 2. Hala and Jorge made us feel at home and as family. They are both clearly dedicated to helping the refugees also feel at home, but they are also aware of the need to return them home as soon as there is peace and security. I truly admire Hala and Jorge’s ability to maintain their hearts open, even when exposed on a daily basis to an immense crisis.

Thank you to the pilots! Whether you are from Alaska or South Africa or some other country, you come out to Eastern Chad and do an incredible job moving people where they are needed.

Thank you, also, to all of the other people for whom I do not have a name. All the guards and cooks and drivers and friendly faces that we came in contact with during our journey.

We will stay in touch with all of you, and we wish you the very best, personally and professionally.

Peace,
Gabriel, Consuelo, and Yuen Lin

Gabriel, Connie and Yuen-Lin ask the American presidential candidates what they plan to do for Darfur.

We want to thank all i-ACTivists who will follow Gabriel, Connie and Yuen-Lin throughout the 10 days. So, similar to last year, we are bringing you the 10Day Challenge. Every time you click on a day’s video on the day that it was posted, notice that in the Action box there will be one word in bold. That word will remain bold for 24 hours only, and then a new word of next day’s Action will be bold. Collect all 10 words from the 10 actions and send all those words to 10day@stopgenocidenow.org day10@stopgenocidenow.org - if you get them all correct, you will be awarded an i-ACTivist e-Certificate. The first 100 participants to send us these words (even if fewer than 10) will win a free “Humanity Before Politics” T-shirt.

• We use technology to reject the standard excuse of inaction - ignorance
• We debunk the myth that ordinary people cannot stop genocide
• We replace statistics with names, faces and stories

The age of bystanders should long have passed - we have entered an age of knowledge which empowers us to protect. Join us as an upstander. Become an i-ACTivist.
