OC For Darfur strategy meeting is this Tuesday, Oct 27

Hi everyone,

This past week has been quite eventful. On Monday, the Obama administration released their official foreign policy towards ending the genocide in Sudan. This is a step in the right direction, and hopefully it’ll make a significant difference in this critical situation.

Then this past Saturday, a few of us attended the screening of The Greatest Silence, a powerful documentary that sheds light on systemic and horrifying rape and violence against women in Congo. It was a big call to action for all of us and we will be exploring how to organize something locally here in Orange County.

Our next planning meeting is this Tuesday, Oct 27th at 6:30p. We will meet at Patty’s office in Newport Beach. Here is the address.

Patty’s office @ 6:30p
2424 SE Bristol Street, Suite 300
Newport Beach, CA 92660

We will discuss:

• Update on what’s going on in Darfur right now.
• What else does the anti-genocide movement need?
• What will it take to end / prevent genocide?
• Our tentative plan for 2010.

If you’d like to get involved and help with the planning of any of these activities, we would love to have you come and attend 🙂

See you on Tuesday.
