From Genocide Prevention Month:

Genocide Prevention Month will have its official launch on April 2, 2009 - at a computer near you. A sneak preview screening of the documentary The Last Survivor will be followed by a panel discussion featuring genocide survivors, policy experts, and prominent activists.

WHAT YOU CAN DO:


1.   WATCH THE LAST SURVIVOR - BY YOURSELF OR WITH A FRIEND

2.   ORGANIZE A "NOT ON OUR WATCH" WATCH PARTY FOR APRIL 2 OR FOR ANY TIME IN APRIL.

On April 2, we will broadcast a 20-min sneak preview of The Last Survivor, a film about four genocide survivors who have become anti-genocide advocates. Following the film, we will podcast a conversation among genocide survivors and policy experts moderated by former CNN anchor, Andrea Koppel.

If you are going to organize a group, here are some suggestions:



Step 1: Find a venue -- consider approaching schools, houses of worship, or community centers.  Or plan to meet in someone's home

Step 2: Invite friends, students, colleagues, family, and local congregations to the film screening

Step 3: Watch the podcast after the screening - and host a discussion as part of the screening

Step 4: You can consider inviting local genocide survivors and Darfur activists to participate

Step 5: Register your event on the Genocide Prevention Month website

Step 6: On the appointed date, watch the film at www.genocidepreventionmonth.org and discuss it using the discussion guide.  (Please photograph or videotape any event you organize and send the images to Please see the website for more!
