before i begin my ramble/plea, know that i dont want to sound preachy
Hey guys, I recieved an email from ONE, talking about the humanitarian crisis in Uganda and in Sudan. I went downstairs, and my sister was there watching Oprah, who was talking about the same thing. For once I sat down and watched Oprah(a person who annoys and bores me to know end.) and the footage they had of the suffering going on in Africa was terrible.
Theres a
genocide going on RIGHT NOW in Sudan, so far, over 400,000 people are dead. Millions upon millions are now homeless and on the brink of starvation.
This happened in 1994 in Rwanda, over 1,000,000 people were killed while the world watched. dont let this happen again.
heres what you can do,
*for US citizens which is most of you, you can call 1800-224-2084 (its the official WHITE HOUSE number, where you can ask Bush for more money for Sudan)
