Abstract
This article addresses the response of the United States Atrocities Prevention Board and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum’s Committee on Conscience to the ongoing crisis in Sudan’s Nuba Mountains (2011–present). First, it provides an overview of the genocide by attrition of the Nuba people perpetrated by the government of Sudan during the late 1980s and early to mid-1990s; second, it delineates the causes and impact of the current crisis in the same region; and, third, it discusses the parallels and differences between the two sets of events. It then examines how, and speculates as to why, the responses of both the Atrocities Prevention Board and the Committee on Conscience have been largely nonexistent and sorely ineffectual.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
