Am I too small for this?

Going through Salgado's book, I found about 100 pictures on his excursion to Africa. This was one of the hardest trips that Salgado took in his entire life he said, he even had to take a break after doing this piece on Africa. He went to various countries and photographed many of their trials but one that stood out to me was a certain picture from the Rwandan Genocide. This picture is very graphic and I'm sorry for those who can't stomach it. I couldn't help but feel something move in me as I saw such a tragedy. The background to the picture is as follows. You have two types of people in Rwanda, the Tutsi and the Hutu. The Hutu had taken over the government from the Tutsi in the early 1960s after they had reigned for a few hundred years, and felt that it was necessary to eradicate all Tutsi. After 30 years in the 1990s the tension had dissipated a bit, however it was quickly being reignited by a Hutu dictator. This is when the killing began. Women raped, men and children dismembered. This is what the Rwanda Genocide looked like.
While looking at these pictures I couldn't help but reflecting on human cruelty in general and all of the horrible things that happen in this world. I want to do something about it. I want to make a difference. I feel like I need to make a difference. It is no longer a question of whether I will act or not rather its more a question of how can I help? I feel really small when looking at these issues, I feel almost...unworthy, to even think I can make a difference. That is why I am going to do what I know how to do, and write these posts about refugees. These people in the photo were those who could not leave in time, however some did make it. They walked and hid for many years, many still have no idea if their families made it through or not. They are refugees, left in countries that will never be their home, and always haunted with the fear they once felt of extermination and hate.
We can help these people. We can help refugees. There are refugees in our community, we need to just love them, let them know they are accepted here and that we are here. Raising awareness is the biggest issue, especially now days. There is a lot of negative ideas about refugee especially in the media out there that are spurred from fear, we are above that. We are here to show that we are all part of a global family willing to help one another. We are entitled to such incredible luxuries in the states, we have no idea. We don't fear whether someone will come to our house and slaughter every last member of our family, or whether or not our car will be checked randomly on the street by men who are willing to shoot anyone they find as "unfit" for their ideal country.
We are blessed.
So let's bless the lives of those less fortunate and offer them the love and comfort they need as they run from death and fear.
I hope you can join me in this call to action to learn more about the refugees or our community and seek out to actively help them.
