HOPE campaign

in Action Alert, Darfur

Human Rights First  have launched a Darfur awareness campaign which includes a video clip and personal testimonies. HOPE is calling for the "UN to appoint a prominent envoy to reenergize the diplomatic process in the Darfur region of Sudan"

We’re looking for at least 200,000 caring people to stand in for the victims of mass atrocities in Darfur. We need you to speak for those who have been killed, raped and displaced—the innocent people who can no longer speak for themselves.

The international community has not agreed on a number of those killed in the slaughter—estimates range from 180,000 to 400,000. The New York Times reported the number 200,000 in March 2006.
