Many thanks to the five remarkable human rights activists who graciously shared their time, energy and wisdom: Arn Chorn Pond, Ernest Guevarra, Vanita Gupta, Martin O'Brien, and Yinka Jegede-Ekpe. And thank you to the ten Facing History students who did such a wonderful job interviewing them.

We would also like to thank the schools and amazing teachers that were so accommodating to our video crews:
  • The Facing History School, New York, New York
  • Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School, Sudbury, Massachusetts
  • The Baker School, Brookline, Massachusetts
  • Academy of the Pacific Rim, Hyde Park, Massachusetts

    Thank you to Sesh Kannan for allowing us to use language from Beyond the Fire's "terms and conditions" page.



    • At the center of BE THE CHANGE are the video clips taken from interviews conducted with each of the five human rights activists. Many thanks to the ten Facing History students who conducted the interviews, the film crews that helped make it look so good, and the production companies who allowed us to use some of their footage in the editing process.
