I fear my own conscience on Africa. I fear the judgement of
future generations, where history properly calculates the gravity
of the suffering. I fear them asking: but how could wealthy

call to action could there be? Did they really know and yet
do nothing? I feel that judgement of the future alongside the
now. It gives me urgency. It fills me with determination.
