2nd Annual Hope for Darfur: Justice in Sudan Rally

The Hope For Darfur: Justice in Sudan Rally is to encourage people to take action, and demonstrate to our government that there is a continued broad US support for the United States and international community to pursue peace and justice in Sudan.

The Darfur Interfaith Network (DIN) and Genocide Intervention Network/Save Darfur Coalition (GI-NET/SDC) are determined to highlight the unjust suffering of the people of Sudan, including the unsafe and horrible living conditions of Darfuris and the decades of abuse in southern Sudan. DIN wants to let the people of Darfur, southern Sudan, and other marginalized people from Sudan know they are neither alone nor forgotten.

We are demanding that the US government and the international community act with greater focus and determination to help the innocent people of Sudan, who have suffered far too long.
