Last night we drove to Boulder for a special international event. Paul Rusesabagina, the hotel manager that saved hundreds of lives during the Rwandan genocide, delievered a compelling speech. "History should be our greatest teacher but we never learn from history!" Paul encouraged us to remember the horrors in Rwanda but look to the burning villages in Sudan. Africa is in flames, can't we find a moment to remind our leaders not to abandon Africa?
