We've seen it all over the web, magazines and television: the region of Darfur in Sudan is in trouble. Why?
1. The Arab government of Sudan is performing ethnic cleansing on the region of Darfur where black Africans have resided for years.
2. More than 90% of the villages have been burned down.
3. Women are being raped and children are being thrown alive into fires.
4. The people of Darfur have no defense because their own government is attacking them.
5. More than 2.5 million people from Darfur have been displaced because there is no where to call home and they are forced to run from the Sudanese government.
6. The crisis has spilled over into neighboring countries The Central African Republic and Chad.
7. More than 200,000 people have been killed in the last 4 years.
