DARFUR? There is a genocide, and many people I meet have not even HEARD of the country. I am part of a club, and some of the members and I went to Washington D.C. went to protest the genocide. Darfur is in Africa and the black Africans are routinely attacked, raped, and worse by the janjaweed. (a.k.a. arab militia.) There is much more to be learned so please visit these sites to get informed.

Yes, its pretty sad, isn't, and the saddest part, is that the rebals are actually backed by the government there, so its not any good sending aid except to all the surrounding countries and hope that the persecuted people make it into a camp there.

Yep. Heard about it in school. I just graduated from a Catholic high school. It's sick that our government can be aware of it & because they haven't called it "genocide" (which it IS) they don't have to do anything!!!

It is truly terrible what people can do to each other in the name of religion.
