Aegis Trust Spreads the Word
Darfur - Waiting for Justice from Aegis Trust on Vimeo.
This film gives eyewitness accounts of the murders from victims in Darfur. Many of their faces are blurred because there are still large numbers of criminals free and roaming around Sudan. Aegis Trust and UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees) encourage us to talk to our governments, activist groups, etc. and pressure them to take action in Darfur.

Without everyone's help, they may not be able to bring these murderers to justice. If we allow our own governments to continue trading with Kartoum without sanctions, we are indirectly allowing this nightmare to continue. As this film demonstrates, the problems in Darfur are still very real and have not ended as news coverage may imply. Lack of publicity due to the existence of other more "important" issues allows western media consumers to forget that the tragedies in Darfur have NOT ceased. People are dying everyday and they need our help. "Protection is the least we can give!"
