In hopes of raising awareness about the reality of genocide in the Darfur region of Sudan, Sam writes every Monday about a key issue in an attempt to stop the atrocity. Doing so may not bring about a wave of change, but it is a small ripple that represents the tide that needs turning.
It's President's Day, today. I've already mentioned the idea of quickly contacting our current administration for any reason, but I want to use this space to highlight Darfur.
Take less than 30 seconds by clicking here to urge Bush to do the following:
- Strengthen the understaffed and overwhelmed African Union peackeeping force already in Darfur.
- Push for the deployment of a strong UN peacekeeping force.
- Increase humanitarian aid and ensure access for aid delivery.
- Establish a no-fly zone.
You can do it. I know you can.
