A Small Victory

Monday, November 21, 2005 by Sam Davidson

In hopes of raising awareness about the reality of genocide in the Darfur region of Sudan, Sam writes every Monday about a key issue in an attempt to stop the atrocity. Doing so may not bring about a wave of change, but it is a small ripple that represents the tide that needs turning.

On Friday, the Senate passed the Darfur Peace and Accountability Act. This was a major, but small victory in raising awareness and increasing advocacy regarding the genocide in Darfur. While it still needs to find passage in the House of Representatives, this small victory at least gives many the hope that the United States will do its part to hasten the end of this genocide.
