I attended a frat party with one of my sisters last Halloween when we saw a pledge laying on the couch entirely unresponsive. I asked 10 brothers to help him and none of them were interested. My friend and I found him some water, got him a trash can, and sat with him until we were certain he would be alright and wouldn’t need an ambulance. We even put him into the “4″ position with his hands under his chin and his leg supporting him so that he couldn’t choke on any throw-up. It was intimidating to be around so many big guys who were drunk and rowdy with festivities, but it was the right thing to do.
Welcome to the Just One Photo Challenge, a photo campaign designed to help minimize the bystander effect through inspiring a broader audience to take action, and teaching others through our own stories of times we pushed fear to the side and took action. We post photos from our followers holding up the number 1 with their finger; this represents the one action it takes to move from being a bystander to a positive participant.
Want your voice to be heard? Send in a photo holding up the number 1 with an explanation about why it is important to take action, or with a personal story about a time that you took action to stop someone from going down a bad path. If you want to send in a story but wish to remain anonymous, that is perfectly alright. Thank you to all of our contributors!

Sticking up for what is right can be difficult at times, especially if it means going against your friends or colleagues. However, you will always feel that you did the right thing when you do stand up for yourselves or others. Sometimes, all it takes is a little courage to be the first one, and others will follow. When you feel someone is going down the wrong path, even just asking them to pause and repeat themselves can be enough to stop someone from saying something they shouldn’t.

“I saw a girl at a party that was extremely drunk within the first 30 minutes. The guy that she was with was extremely pushy and she told me that she wanted to go home but he wouldn’t let her. So I had my boyfriend at the time distract her date and I was able to get her outside and far enough away from the party where my boyfriend at the time could meet up with us and we walked her home.”

APRIL 17, 2017 – Today marks four years since the Boston Marathon Bombing. Over the past four years the government and many news outlets have focused on the terrorists, Tamerlan and Dzhokar Tsarnaev. Why did they radicalize? What was the jury verdict? Was the verdict accurate? Today we would like to draw your attention to other parties—the familial bystanders who, whether intentionally or not, played key roles in the radicalization of the Tsarnaev brothers.
