Protect Darfur Now!

Darfur Now portrays the struggle of six individuals brought together by the crisis in the Darfur region of Sudan. The motion picture shows how one humanitarian worker in Sudan can ensure that thousands receive food each day, and how one young activist from California can lead the campaign to ensure that US public funds do not support Sudan’s regime. Join their campaign to protect Darfur’s innocent civilians.
