Bloggers for Darfur
Apr 14th, 2007 by Jill
Adopted virtual neighbor Marilyn of California Fever and I started Bloggers for Darfur in 2006 as a way to raise awareness of the killing taking place in the Darfur region of Sudan. (I should note here that Marilyn deserves the credit for keeping the site going and for doing the blogging ever since.) We started it last year to coincide with last year’s Global Day for Darfur, and, as Marilyn points out, there has been no real progess in Darfur in the last year. It’s pretty overwhelming to me. This year, Global Days for Darfur will take place between April 23 and April 30. (Different places will observe it on different days in April.) Marilyn has a post up this week about Google Earth’s new satellite images showing the destruction there.
