\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/em><\/p>\n

As director for international development of Youth for Human Rights, Timothy Bowles has helped empower and educate youth in impoverished and war-torn African countries about the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.<\/p>\n

Now, the Pasadena attorney is preparing to launch a pilot program to train a diverse group of San Gabriel Valley high school students to be human rights advocates in their own communities.<\/p>\n

Bowles was the guest speaker at the Duarte Mayor\u2019s Prayer Breakfast & Community Service Recognition Awards at City of Hope\u2019s Cooper Auditorium, where he showed a video of the organization\u2019s work in Sierra Leone and Liberia.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn many ways, the challenge to inspire America\u2019s young people is greater than with the students you have just seen, many of whom were soldiers or the casualties of war before they were teenagers as well as the targets and recipients of their violence,\u201d Bowles told an audience of about 140 people.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe that we live in a day \u2013 and in communities \u2013 where cynicism and apathy are the `new cool\u2019 and where too many think they have the luxury to harbor false, fixed ideas about those groups or individuals labeled as different, whether those differences come in the form of ethnicity, culture, economic station, or religion.\u201d>><\/a><\/p>\n
