Never Forgotten - Pastebin.com
clipped from article:situation in the Arakan has only been getting
worse as Rohingya continue to starve under blockade by the government of
Myanmar. Their access to food, clean water, and critic health care has
been cut off for over a year now. If the situation does not change soon
the Rohingya of Burma will be at risk of being expelled from their
homeland. If this is allowed to happen the world will watch as Myanmar
accomplishes it's aim of perpetrating genocide against it's Rohingya
citizens.
For this reason Alder's Ledge would like to invite all of you to join
us on August 13th (Tuesday) in tweeting on behalf of the Rohingya.
United as one, we can make a noise that the world cannot easily ignore.
We at Alder's Ledge call this simple act "Screaming". This allows the
"Screamer" to come alongside the victims of genocide and spread the
information to help raise awareness. It, in relation to the suffering of
the victims, may not seem like much... but it sure as hell beats the
deafening silence that has for far too long muffled the screams of the
Rohingya themselves.
We ask that you read the links in the proposed tweets below and help
educate yourself on the issue. This will help you scream more
effectively. It will help you inform others. And it will make you a
catalyst in this fight that those who support Burma cannot stop.
If you would like to write your own tweets please just add the hashtag: #NeverForgotten
This
will help show solidarity with all the Rohingya suffering in Burma and
around the world. Let's show them that we are watching, we are fighting,
and that we will never forget their suffering. Let us stand up to the
murderers and lift our voices. Lets show Myanmar's regime that we will
not forget their crimes.

These 20 tweets are basic suggestions and can be utilized to help
generate some buzz about the tragic events currently plaguing the
Rohingya people. With your help we can create a scream that echoes in
the ears of the world around us. This is an attempt by Alder's Ledge to
push the subject back out of the realm of silence and into the forefront
of our conversations. We should never forget the pains inflicted upon
the Rohingya people.
Please join us at 9am (New York) time on August 13th (Tuesday) 2013.
The barrage of tweets is expected to last for one hour at least. But we
would hope that this conversation and this fight does not end here or
even with us alone. Engage everyone you know. Post this information to
every outlet you have. Never stop, never relent, constantly...
persistently scream for the Rohingya. Your voice may very well be the
only one they have right now.
Times include 6am San Diego time, 7am Denver time, 8am Omaha time,
9am Chicago time, 2pm London time, 3pm Frankfurt Germany time, 4pm
Jerusalem Time, 8pm Bangkok time, 9pm Shanghai, 10pm Seoul time. For all
