<-Banners are set up as reminders that you can help. You can be the change.Many people are trying to stop it from a distance. Websites are available with forms that can be filled out as a petition. An example is http://www.darfurgenocide.org/. Popular websites such as facebook also are helping in trying to make people more aware of what is going on. With information it is hoped that it will be put to a stop. Bands such as Green Day are writing songs such as "Working class heros" which help raise awarness. Also donations help support the people that are being harmed though they don't make the crimes stop. The money donated is put towards medical help and supplies for the victims that have been burned out of there villages.

I never knew the extent of what was happening in Darfur until I really read through these posts. These people are being mistreated only for their ethnicity, and I don't understand why. There's obviously discrimination in the world, but how a government can try to exterminate everyone in an area for no real reason is beyond me. My biggest problem with it is why the UN isn't taking a bigger stand with this. There are thousands of people dying, and they aren't doing anything because of soverenity. It makes me doubt the leaders in the world, and the people in these countries who vote for them.

These pictures are pretty serious. The one when it shows the burning hut and then the stop genocide saying is very important. Peoples buildings and villages are buring down like that everyday and most likely millions of them have burnt down through this whole genocide. I think these pictures are pretty good.
