Darfur
Darfur
1. its in africa
2. start with the letter “D”
3. woman are being raped
its under a lot of stress and people are getting burned in northwest darfur and they have a food shortage. kids there dont have there parents and family. since 2003 they have had a lot of violence. 1.5 people have died million and 2.5 million have been driven from there homes all because of the broke rebellion the US is not doing enough to help Darfur in what to help Genocide this [T][a][y][m][a][r] [J][o][h][n][s][o][n]
here are 5 facts about Dafur:
1. Sudan’s government and the pro-government Arab militias are accused of war crimes against the region’s black African population, although the UN has stopped short of calling it genocide.
I feel that this is racist and discrimination because is short because of genocide
2.The conflict began in the arid and impoverished region early in 2003 after a rebel group began attacking government targets, saying the region was being neglected by Khartoum.
The government doesn’t pay enough attention to Darfur thats why they say its being neglected
3.Sudan’s government denies being in control of the Janjaweed and President Omar al-Bashir has called them “thieves and gangsters”.
they have denied it because this item is the only way they can make little money
they are saying that they aren’t in control of janjaweed because this is the only way the can make little money
4.Millions have fled their destroyed villages, with some 2m in camps near Darfur’s main towns. But there is not enough food, water or medicine.
5.Some 200,000 have also sought safety in neibouring Chad, but many of these are camped along a 600km stretch of the border and remain vulnerable to attacks from Sudan.
I am following what this sign says because I feel people should not be killed for there race. To me the is racial discrimination.
To me this is a picture of two kids in Dafur who are suffering a food shortage, maybe lost of parents and at risk of being killed
