Read the "Chasing the Flame" blog, about inspiring movements

Pulitzer Prize-winning author Samantha Power published the bestseller Chasing the Flame: Sergio Vieira de Mello and the Fight to Save the World to share the story of Sergio Vieira de Mello who was among the world’s most experienced and beloved diplomats. Brazilian by birth, he was the true global citizen, giving 34 years of his life to the United Nations.

The blog “Chasing the Flame” is the beginning of an effort to educate Americans on Sergio’s life and lessons … and use his story to ignite a dynamic constituency that demands a smarter foreign policy for the United States. The voices you’ll find here come from the worlds of foreign policy, activism, humanitarianism, education and more.

Together, the bloggers intend to reflect on Sergio’s life and legacy, provoke your reactions and discuss how this movement can have the greatest impact possible.
