Apply for the Wallenberg Summer Travel Awards Today!


What will you do?

“Over the summer, I struggled to determine my role. I asked myself, ‘What stake do I have in their fight for equality? Am I just complicating their effort?’ I thought about that, and thought about Raoul Wallenberg. He was not Jewish but recognized our need to act as humans, not as Jews or Roma or Americans. That’s a lesson for me. We need to act, to stand up for voices not heard.”

Stuart researched documentation of the Roma genocide by the Nazis in Germany as a Wallenberg 
Summer Travel Award recipient. What will you do?
