Tell the U.S. to make it a month for Darfur

[From American Jewish World Service:]

It’s been four years since the United Nations Security Council first addressed the violence in Darfur. But the devastation continues.

It’s time for the world to act.

Right now, the United States has the opportunity to demonstrate its leadership. During the month of June, the U.S. holds the presidency of the United Nations Security Council. This is a key opportunity for the U.S. to push for concrete international actions that will make a difference for the people of Darfur.

Urge the U.S. to seize this opportunity by sending a message to U.S. Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.
