Rebecca Hamilton: Building a Permanent Anti-genocide Constituency

In this excerpt from a panel discussion at Facing History and Harvard Law School's November 2005 conference on the legacy of the Nuremberg Trials, Rebecca Hamilton tells the story of how she helped mobilize the Harvard community to take action against the genocide in Sudan. 
She discusses the expansion of this work into building a wider, permanent anti-genocide constituency. Rebecca Hamilton is a joint degree student at John F. Kennedy School of Government and Harvard Law School and Co-founder of Darfur Action Group.
