My name is Matt Lorin and I am the director of a new organization called the
Student Human Rights Exchange (see gn.humanrights #196).  I am working to build 


bridges between huamn rights organizations and concerned and motivated students.
I received a call this morning from an undergraduate at Harvard who wants to
become active in the Kurdish cause. I refered him to your organization but also
thought you might wish to contact him directly. Harvard undergraduates have an
exceptional track record of strong student activism on human rights issues. A
call to him might be just the empowerment he needs to press him into service.
His name is Allan Galpar, (617) 493-2302, in Cambridge, MA., USA.
Please continue to keep us informed. I'd love to help spread the word to
students around the world.
I expect, hope, you've been in contact with Cultural Survival. If not, please
call them. They are a powerful and well respected NGO concerned with the rights
of indigenous peoples around the world. They work out of the Anthropology Dept.
at Harvard. 
Good Luck and continue the good work.

Peace,

Matt Lorin
