Great post with some really useful links. The situation in Darfur is something we should all be concerned with

I enjoy reading this site, albeit through RSS, but I have to say I think articles like this are wrong.
Approximately 200,000 will die in the U.S. this year from Homicides, drunk driving, domestic violence, or gang violence.
If we take care of our problems at home first then we’ll be that much better to help others.

Thank you for this. Yes I believe the problem is
not only that many people are not aware but also that it doesn’t effect they’re every day lives. Many High Schools in my area which is California require a hundred hours of community service. This would be a great thing to do, plus pretty easy, but at the same time you’d probably end up doing more good in the world than picking up some trash. Just a thought.

To all that care about situation and people in Darfur I would recommend a great documentary made by a great man that lived in Darfur and was tracking the violence there for several years. Then he was taken to prison there and a lot of his tapes and photos were taken by government in Darfur but some were not and he made a great insight documentary on the problems and violence in Darfur.
Documentary is called
Dar fur - War for Water
(Tomo Križnar is the creator)
Worth watching because it was made there amongst the people that suffer.

Despite the constant bombardment from media such things still do shock me. Some time ago I learnt a skilfull method for handling the suffering and terrible things that happen in the world.

Darfur has to be the genocide that the world forgot. It has skirted around the international news for years and yet nothing has been resolved and the people still suffer. Why? Because we have become desensitized and nothing really affects us anymore!

Thank you for sharing these! So often you want to help but many times the help you give ends up in the wrong hands and your efforts are wasted.

I think that we sadly become desensitized to these issues. Hopefully the blogs will help us to remember that not everyone is as fortunate as we are.
