Kerry Kennedy ’87, president of the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights, was featured in a story “A School for the Village” by Wendy Abrams in the book Unselfish: Love Thy Neighbor as Thy Selfie about her visit to impoverished Nuevo Zaragoza, Mexico, that resulted in a collaborative effort between the RFK Center and Go Campaign (founded by Scott Fifer ’87) to raise support for the village’s rebuilding efforts. The book, compiled by Paul D. Parkinson and published by Unselfish Stories in May, also includes a story by Kennedy entitled “Alicia from East Timor.”
