In the midst of all the killing, raping, and looting in the Congo, the stalled power-sharing talks in Zimbabwe, pirating and other general lawlessness in Somalia...
let's hope the world doesn't forget about the tragedies still taking place in Sudan.
This is especially important given the Congolese refugees going into Sudan, stressing an already horrible refugee sitution.
It's not like reading the news makes me smile every morning, but today for some reason I am even more saddened than usual. Every day it feels like the news gets worse and worse, tragedy upon tragedy. And sometimes it feels like we don't even give two shits. Maybe it sounds like a broken record, but maybe that's because we aren't listening. People around the world are living in conditions that are unimagineable to most of us. And to them, it's not just a news story they read with their coffee. It's their LIVES. This is what they LIVE. These people could be you or me, had we only been born in a different place. These are mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, friends, and they deserve better than this. WE HAVE TO CARE.
