Brian D. McLaren discusses why we all need to raise our voices for change in Congo on the Huffington Post. "Since we're all implicated, and since we're all connected, and since the West was silent when Cambodia and Rwanda descended into hell, doesn't it make sense for more and more of us to be sure that we're watching what's happening in the Congo? Shouldn't we raise our voices for needed change in Congo-related foreign and economic policy? And shouldn't we all support greater transparency in the minerals trade, opposing "dirty computers" and "conflict mobile phones" just as we have opposed "blood diamonds" since the 1990s?"

Fashion mogul Donna Karan (designer of the DKNY and Donna Karan New York brands) launched a new website yesterday with a featured section on "Women Who Inspire,"  and long-time advocate and Enough Project partner Iman chose RAISE Hope for Congo as her designated charit.
