Today was hard on the heart. We spent the afternoon in town of Mafraq, Jordan. The name of the town comes from the Arabic word for "split." And it indeed feels like a fractured place. The city is swelling with refugees who have fled Syria, now having fled violence in the camps. These people are weary and exhausted. Fearful. All they want is to go home, but their homes are gone. They told us, "we are only alive because there is no death here." They are existing. They do not feel like they are living. And yet still they were so welcoming. We were invited into a home, shared by multiple families, to listen, share Turkish coffee, and to play with their daughter who, at only 5 years old, has experienced a war but is still so full of joy. We sat. We listened. We witnessed. On the 20th anniversary of the Rwandan genocide, days after observing the horrors of the Holocaust at Yad Vashem, we sat and witnessed it happening again. Ban Ki Moon said yesterday, "the world has yet to fully overcome their blind eye when it comes to mass atrocity... Syria is burning." Listening to what these families went through, the horrors they saw, I was left wondering ... Have we learned nothing? What gave me hope was the laughter of this little girl, who squealed in delight as we made her teddy bear dance and sing to her. What gives me hope moving forward is the amazing community of people I know exist, who are working feverishly, with deep determination to make life better for these people. People on the ground like @cfatke & @malloryfatke. And everyone working globally to stop injustices. All of them. I believe we can. And I encourage you. Do not turn a blind eye. Their story is our story. Bear witness. Listen thoughtfully. And learn lessons that will make you more determined to use your money, and most importantly your voices, for good. Be a #globalcitizen. The light has to win here. It must. #NoUsAndThem
