Editorial reviews

For over the past 10 years, the Darfur region of Sudan has been in a state of humanitarian emergency. Through Sudanese government forces and the Janjaweed militias, hundreds of thousands of civilians have been tortured, displaced, and killed. In an effort to spread awareness of this horrible situation, the 92nd Street Y has brought together Ruth Messinger, Gerald Martone, and John Prendergast for a night of conversation that not only educates listeners, but provides information on what individuals can do to help those in Darfur. Darfur Genocide: What the Media Isn’t Telling Us is a sobering and important look at one of our worst modern conflicts.
