About Us


Who We Are

We are a collection of Christians, students, speakers, fundraisers, writers, and yuppies living in Memphis , TN who have decided to speak out against the growing threats of genocide, the World Water Crisis, and human trafficking in our world today.

Mission Statement

Operation Broken Silence is a soon-to-be nonprofit that strives to protect the innocent by confronting social affliction and building a new generation of abolitionists who envision a world without genocide, slavery, and lack of clean water.

Our Story

In 2007, we created our website and group Operation Broken Silence (OBS) to help make our work more efficient and productive. OBS supplies daily information about genocide, the global water crisis, and human trafficking while simultaneously providing ways, ideas, and policies for individuals, churches, and governments to become involved in preventing, ending, and abolishing these evils.

The key concept behind Operation Broken Silence is that these focus issues cannot be prevented or stopped unless aid organizations, advocacy groups, churches, and individual citizens worldwide unite as one in condemning them, while simultaneously pressuring the U.S. government and other governments to take immediate, consistent, and permanent action. Seeing that all of these have different responsibilities in combatting all three, rarely work together, and that several barriers exist between them, our website is designed to be an easy-to-use resource that aims to achieve 4 main goals:

1. Provide ways to pressure the U.S. government into creating an anti-genocide system that effectively prevents genocide, swiftly end ones that cannot be prevented, and focuses on eradicating the political ideology of eliminationism.

2. Provide funding to aid organizations in strategic and sustainable ways that helps to prevent genocide and combat the World Water Crisis. Also to provide funding for special organizations that help to reintegrate people who have been trafficked back into society.

3. Provide policies, reports, and new concepts on the prevention, ending, and abolishment of genocide and human trafficking to governments, aid organizations, advocacy groups, churches, and individuals.

4. Provide daily news on current issues surrounding the issues of human trafficking, genocide, and the World Water Crisis on our website and through our social media outlets.

Since the creation of Operation Broken Silence, our work has been featured in reports and articles by the Enough Project, Darfur Christian Action, and the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting.
