In Germany, they first came for the communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Catholic. Then they came for me - and by that time there was nobody left to speak up.

This quote is taken from The Campaign to End Genocide website, which is an initiative of Citizens for Global Solutions. Both of these organizations' sites are good information resources for current problems that require international collaboration to resolve, like the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Sudan that may soon become a full-fledged genocide if outside intervention is not soon committed. Each site also offers ways for the concerned world citizen to get involved in the problem-solving process.
