Lost In History:1984 Reconstructed

The genocide of 1984 demands our attention, for it is in danger of becoming lost in history, buried under communal politics, international relations and the government's emphatic silencing of human rights workers.

It is our duty to ensure that the right to life of all persons is upheld, regardless of their age, religion or gender. If a government is particularly tyrannical, then we must call attention to this unjust rule. If we shut our eyes to these atrocities and shut our ears to the anguished cries of our fellow human beings,
we silently acquiesce to inhumanity.
