Join the H.O.P.E. for Darfur Campaign Will you make sure “never again” doesn’t become “yet again” in Darfur? We’re looking for at least 200,000* caring people to stand in for the victims of mass atrocities in Darfur – and to help us to build a lasting peace in western Sudan.
The Sudanese Government, using Arab “Janjaweed” militias, its air force, and organized starvation, is systematically killing the black Sudanese of Darfur.
Over two and a half million people, driven from their homes, now face death from starvation and disease as the Government and militias attempt to prevent humanitarian aid from reaching them. The same forces have destroyed the people of Darfur’s villages and crops, and poisoned their water supplies, and they continue to murder, rape and terrorize.
Do your part as a member of the Human Race and help organize a Peace Envoy for Darfur buy signing up using this link. It only takes a minute.
You go boy! Work that activist magic ((smiles)).
Bravo Trench! :D
We should all learn how to be aware and sensitive to these issues. Thank you, Trench, for bringing this up. =)
This reminds me of Lord of War, which I watched over the weekend. Shows us how real these things are and at the same time, how detached most of us are from these issues.
Just because it doesn’t happen in our backyards doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. We all deserve to be more farsighted sometimes.
Thanks for this.
some parts of the world are so fucked up. reading that type of stuff makes me feel so fortunate.
