Stop Genocide Now is collecting the images, voices, and solidarity of everyday Americans in brief messages to be sent to the people of Darfur now living in displacement.
The messages are compiled into video letters from the American people to be screened in the refugee camps where most of the people of Darfur now live.
Our goal is to remind the people of Darfur that in the face of desperate circumstances we, the people, stand in solidarity with them and support their right to life and dignity. From America with Love is also a message to the world leaders, through solidarity with the innocent victims, demanding immediate action.
Greetings of Hope: March 2010
Glendale/Pasadena based, In His Shoes, sends their messages from survivor to survivor: Greetings of Hope
Their Darfuri friends respond:
