Ryan Phillippe is extending his hand (and voice) almost 7,000 miles from Hollywood to West Papua. In a new PSA for the Isolated Ambassador for Peace campaign, the actor and father of three urges the western world to take action to stop what he calls the Indonesian military's genocide of the Papuan population. "In one of the most remote parts of the world, the existence of an entire culture is being threatened," the actor says in the PSA (released exclusively to E! News).

While promoting his new project, Isolated, at the event, Ryan talked about how he and Reese aren't going to push their kids into show business and instead make sure that they finish their educations. He said, "I don't mean to dismiss or demean our industry but I'd like to see them do something a little more meaningful or important [than enter show business]. If I had the education and what they have offered to them as kids,...
