I've just been reading that there is genocide going on in Sudan. And under international agreement, a nation must intervene to stop a genocide when it is officially acknowledged,
Our government has been focusing a lot of "liberating" Iraq so maybe it's time to step up to the plate, officially acknowledge what is going on, and liberate Sudan.
The new website, PassionOfThePresent, tracks the effort to stop genocide. It has suggestions on what we ordinary people can do — like contact our Representatives and Senators and ask them to support H. Con. Res. 403 [House] and S. Con. Res 99 [Senate &mdash currently sponsored by Lieberman (D-CT), Durbin (D-IL), Brownback (R-Kansas), Kennedy (D-MA), and Feingold (D-WI)]. I'm going to contact my representatives shortly.
The site also has an RSS feed. Let's spread the word!
