Success

Posted by two23 in Uncategorized

As you know, the Save Darfur blog event was last Friday and Thursday. We got 677 comments! Thanks to all those who participated, and to those who wrote about it. This was our chance to make a difference and I think we did. I am so satisfied with the outcome. Not to mention everyone who posted was so sophisticated in their writing, and truly took the time out to write long meaningful comments. I was so impressed. And a lot of people replied to my comment and asked questions. That just goes to show people care.

Boycott Olympics

Posted by two23 in Uncategorized

As you know, China is holding the Olympics this year. You might even know that China is Darfurs highest oil/Gas buyer. So in other words, the Sudanese government and Chinas government are very close. They have many ties and connections. China has not done anything to persuade the Sudanese government to stop the Genocide. They have basically sat back and watched it happen. Because China is so neglectant to save the people of Sudan the people here in America, and even in some other parts of the world are renaming the Olympics as the “Genocide Olympics”. Steven Spielberg (who was the creative director) has dropped out because of the poor job done by the government in China. Many people are urging those of us who care about the Genocide, and even those who don’t, to boycott the Olymics. In order for China to truely get the message that this needs to stop, we need to hand deliver it. The Olympics are the biggest thing to happen to China, so they will most likely do anything to protect it. If we can get enough people to boycott, we can make a huge difference. China is already making headlines for recently, “Urging the Sudanese Government to Take Action”. So as you can so we are already starting to make a difference. Just keep it up.
