What can be done? Well, I read over there that Daniel is gathering stories of the abuse that the SGAs suffered as kids and teens, and that they eventually want to bring the perpetrators to justice. They certainly mean to do just that and I believe they will succeed.

This is their battle and as Daniel has repeatedly said, they are SGAs and not FGAs. So what is our part as older generation members? Well, in a large sense to not interfere with what they are trying to do. If we can encourage and help from the side, say in documentation or corraboration of testimonies in any way, we should offer our help.

But it's very important to remember this this is first and foremost their battle. They call the shots. We would frankly get in the way if we offer anything but a support on the sides. There is much that we can do on many other fronts, mind you.
