Darfur Press Release
Dear Councilmember Trachtenberg,
I think that if we get more people in America aware of the things happening in Darfur, then more people will help and divest money to help. Over 400,000 people have killed and many more have been raped or mained from their homes. This is something that would definetly fet the people of America motivated to do something.
The ‘ Who’s Darfur Syndrome ” is really affecting America and there is little media coverage of Darfur. In June 2005 CBS ran 50 times over Michael Jackson, than Darfur and probably mentioned Darfur once. Montgomery county is one of the most diverse places in the world and has always promoted ethnic tolerance and justice. So, we could divest money to help Darfur.
