News Update

Here is a news update on what is happening in Darfur. As the people of Sudan continue their peaceful protests against their oppression, I would like to encourage you to take some type of action to show your support. I will be putting up a new article at some point this week so please check back often and once again please continue to support the people of Sudan.

1) Today the Government of Sudan is suppressing another
peaceful demonstration, leaders from North opposition parties
detained

2) Ask your Senators to sign the Feingold-McCain letter and tell the Obama administration to lead for peace in Sudan.

3) MSF reporting 2K dead and 250K displaced in South Sudan this year

4) Tear gas, clashes in Sudan. Is opposition to Bashir becoming more forceful?

5) Darfur kidnap victim 'happy' 100-day ordeal over.

6) “Violence Grips South Sudan as Vote Nears,” a great narrated slideshow by the New York Times’ Jeffrey Gettleman

Thank you,
Corey Dragge
