Fatou Bensouda, who is a chief prosecutor on the International Criminal Court, spoke against the Darfur genocide in 2014("Critical Discussion," 2014). Where a meeting was held with the DWAG or Darfur Women Action Group, and the "Women and Genocide in the 21st Century: The Case for Darfur." "The meeting will bring [brought] together activists and scholars, include victims in the conversation and seek effective strategies toward ending the remnants of genocide in Darfur("Critical Discussion," 2014)." The quote in the image says it all in a nut shell, and to think this was said over a year ago in 2014. At the meeting, "A U.S. representative at the ministerial meeting warned of “punitive measures including multilateral targeted sanctions.” ("A Tipping Point," 2014)." Here the representative is saying that it would be dangerous and not ideal, to take extreme measures against the leaders or embassies of Sudan ("A Tipping Point," 2014). With all the talk the leaders have done, Sudan still has war and genocide; the leaders of Sudan are still at large.
Image quote, ("Critical Discussion," 2014). The video is from United to End Genocide, ("Dying in Darfur," 2015). United to End Genocide: This is a link to the United to End Genocide website, and I hope that some people will help and support them. We need to end this genocide. |

Image human bodies spelling "ENOUGH!" ("Ongoing Genocide," 2014).
Within the other pages of this website, there are the methods used. Here they are all in one place...During the genocide the Janjaweed tribe was majorly a part of what happened to the people of Darfur. The Janjaweed are blamed for killings, women being raped, and abductions ("Darfur Conflict"). They've also been blamed for "burning villages, looting economic resources, polluting water sources, and murdering, raping, and torturing civilians," ("Darfur Genocide-World," 2015). The very idea that humanity is capable of this kind of destruction and cruelty, just opens my eyes. The video below, on the left is a shorter version of a documentary on the genocide of Darfur, ("SUDAN," 2012). The video below on the right is from the New York Times, who went into Sudan to talk to kids hiding out and video first hand information about the genocide, (Ellick, Kristof, 2015). These were chosen to give more information about the genocide, instead of what the methods are. I hope the videos provide an insight to the genocide to anyone who watches them as they did for me.
