Washington, D.C.

I think there is an obligation on the part of all of us to stay informed and aware and to read the responsible newspapers and periodicals which discuss national and international issues, and which themselves make an effort to distinguish between extremist exploitation of issues and legitimate debate and discussion.

New year, new us. Same mission.

Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights is rebranding to honor the legacy of our founder and hero, Mrs. Ethel Skakel Kennedy. From now on, we will proudly be known as the Robert & Ethel Kennedy Human Rights Center

While our name is changing, our mission and work remain the same. We will continue to fight injustice, advance human rights, and hold governments accountable around the world in 2026 and beyond.
