The legacy of Robert F Kennedy


"It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped each time a man stands up for an ideal or acts to improve the lot of others or strikes out against injustice he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest wall of oppression and resistance."
-Robert F Kennedy.

Robert Kennedy was devoted to helping the poor and stamping out injustice. His legacy lives on through the Human Rights Advocacy Award and The Center For Human Rights, which honours individuals striving for social justice throughout the world and continues his vision to realize social justice.
