We Are Not Satisfied: Save Darfur!

I attended the Save Darfur Conference in Montreal this past weekend as a performer, but came away with so much more.  It quickly turned into a gig with a cause (which doesn't happen so much.) Baryl Wajsman, the Editor of The Suburban and also with the Institute for Public Affairs of Montreal organized the event, where a distinguished panel of speakers debated and informed hundreds about the situation in Darfur. Speakers from Save Darfur Canada, the Southern Chrisitan Leadership Conference, the UN and other human rights activists like Nazanin Afshin-Jam, who is a human rights activist and a former Miss Canada all spoke about what we as citizens can do -- everyday-- to place pressure on the Sudanese government to stop violating international humanitarian laws and killing hundreds of thousands of innocent people. What can we do to help?
