“We can be the generation that no longer accepts that an accident of latitude determines whether a child lives or dies-but will we be that generation? Will we in the West realize our potential or will we sleep in the comfort of our affluence with apathy and indifference murmuring softly in our ears? Fifteen thousand people dying needlessly every day from AIDS, TB and Malaria. Mothers, Fathers, Teachers, Farmer, Nurses, Mechanics and Children. This is Africa’s crisis. That it’s not on the nightly news, that we do not treat this as an emergency-that’s our crisis. Future generations flipping through these pages will know whether we answered the key questions. The evidence will be the world around them. History will be our judge, but what’s written is up to us. We can’t say our generation didn’t know how to do it. We can’t say our generation couldn’t afford it. And we can’t say our generation didn’t have reason to do it. It is up to us.” Bono
