A Challenge for Us All![]() Another useful place to check out is the DivestSudan page of DivestTerror.org. Here you will learn that we are financing the campaign against the southern regions of the Sudan by the money our state pension funds and university pension funds are investing in African oil. Oil again, perhaps the worst thing to ever happen to the planet. You can download your own particular state and discover what its role is in this, learn how to join in petitioning that this practice be discontinued, and many other useful things. A couple more useful virtual visits are to Darfur: A Genocide We Can Stop, with the latest news from Sudan, petitions to sign, letters to write to the White House and Congress, then on to Save Darfur, where you can find many more useful links. This one, for instance, which gives a very clear and readable summary of the current situation. Read, talk about this in your own blogs, at the water cooler, around the family dinner table, in your churches, at school. Take up the challenge - before it's entirely too late. | +Save/Share | | |
