You are cordially invited to attend
“Stop the Genocide in Darfur: An Evening of Education and Action”
On Wednesday, November 1st,
at The Channing-Murray Foundation
at 7 p.m.

Hosted by Channing-Murray and UIUC Action
Darfur will host in the Channing-Murray Chapel

The documentary "Darfur Diaries" will be shown on the big screen, and
action items will be presented on what YOU can do to help the people of
Darfur. Come out to learn more about this important issue!!

"Darfur Diaries: Messages From Home" is an hour-long film where you will
hear the people of Darfur (both those displaced inside Darfur and those
living in refugee camps in Chad) speak for themselves about their
experiences, their fears, and their hopes for the future, during a time of
conflict in the region which has been termed a "genocide." The film probes
the history, culture and heritage of Darfur as a means of deepening
understanding of the crisis and complicating easily assumed perceptions by
which the conflict is often portrayed (such as a matter of race, ethnicity
or religion).

This is event is free and open to the public. Stay for the discussion and
"Fair Trade" Coffee, Tea, juice and snacks to follow.
