Darfur 101 by Professor Eric Reeves

Mike said Aug 16, 2007, 3:25 AM:

 

Eric Reeves, a professor at Smith College, has spent the past seven years working full-time as a Sudan researcher and analyst. 

Please see this excellent re-post at this blog for a well rounded understanding of the situation in Darfur.  The post is from May 2006.
http://vegankid.solidaritydesign.net/2006/05/19/a-beginners-guide-to-genocide/#13

I also encourage everyone to visit http://www.sudanreeves.org and http://www.enoughproject.org for further information about the history of the situation and current initiatives and recommendations for solving the crisis.

Also check out some of the books available at one of my previous posts, many of which are available at your local library - http://pods.zaadz.com/learn_share_act/discussions/view/172853
