WHY:
The systematic, state-sponsored killings and rapes in Darfur, western Sudan, have resulted in 2.4 million displaced Darfuris, more than 300,000 dead, charges of crimes against humanity, and what some call 'ethnic cleansing' and others, like the Bush administration, call ?genocide?. Join Nicholas Kristof, Mark Malloch Brown, Juan Mendez, and Tragi Mustafa in a discussion on ending the atrocities in Darfur, and why you are the best hope for peace and justice.
