This Wednesday: Rally for Peace and Justice in Darfur
Posted by John Bagwell on Jul 17, 2009
The Damanga Coalition for Freedom and Democracy will hold a rally in Washington, D.C. next Wednesday, July 22. Damanga – an organization founded by members of the group Representatives of the Massaleit Community in Exile, or RMCE – is organizing to put pressure on the Obama administration to support justice and peace in Darfur. Local Sudanese activists will gather in Lafayette Square Park across from the White House at 1:00 p.m. and deliver a letter to President Obama before marching to the State Department to deliver their message to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. If you're located in or around D.C., head down and take part next Wednesday.
For more details see this flyer.
Thanks, John, for getting the word out about this important opportunity for Darfur activists to stand in solidarity with Darfuris to support the ICC and its indictment of Omar al-Bashir. Please join the rally if you are in the DC area. A large turnout is an important show of support!
