Online Rally for Darfur

On April 30, 2006, several cities and towns across America will be holding vigils and rallies in the hope that it will stir our government to take action to stop the genocide in Darfur. For more general information about the live rallies being held on April 30th, please go to Save Darfur, Our Pledge and Darfur - A Call to Action.

Many of us are unable to attend those rallies and events. We created this blog as a way for the blogging community to come together to let our government know that we feel it's imperative that we take action NOW to stop the genocide in Darfur. Please join us!

Here are other things you can do:

  • Add your voice to Million Voices for Darfur here.
