Darfur Genocide
As we are talking now, people in Darfur are fighting. Darfur is a region of the African nation of Sudan. Every week, refugees from Darfur are forced to flee their country because of this war. In Soudan, there are two groubs of Africans: the Arab and the black Africans. This has as consequence the genocide.
The Arab Africans think that they are better than the black Africans. This called descrimination. Also, a group of people called "Janjaweed" (which means "dehvil on horseback") are worsen the violence against Black Africans. But this is not the only reason of this genoside. Under Darfur exists a large amount of oil and water . So, the interests in Sudan's resources are another reason. The Sudan government is interested in this large amount of oil and water. Ending, the third reason is...power! The government of Sudan is a dictatorship that doesn't want to give any power to the Sudan people. Those are the three main reasons that this is happening. Now we have to think how we could stop it!
Initially, countries need to get together to help to this serious situation. Then, they could give some money to the non-governmental organisations that help Darfur's refugges. Now, in a local level , students could make people sensitive with projects, events and with spreading it online by facebook, twitter or youtube.
With the indifference nothing will not change!

Hi Anna,
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήYes, some terrible things are happening in Darfur and you're right, nothing will change if everyone just ignores it. And yes, raising awareness on the local level throughout schools all over the world is absolutely vital. How about making a suggestion for actions that we could do at our school? (This question goes to all Agym students!)
Great blog article Anna.
Well done. :)
