Who We Are
Tennesseas Against Genocide (TAG) is committed to raising public awareness and to mobilizing an effective, unified response to acts of genocide, ethnic cleansing, and other acts of inhumanity.
We are a coalition of community activists, faith-based and non-profit organizations, academicians, and interested local citizens. Our purpose is to educate and encourage:
- to educate our community and ourselves with regard to historic and current realities and the need for intervention
- to encourage our government, the United Nations, and the world community to act proactively, including intervention when necessary.
Of immediate interest to us is to make certain that everything possible is being done to end the atrocities and reduce the suffering in Darfur and nearby refugee camps. Of continual interest is the need for the world to respond to any acts of genocide that arise.
