Forum on Genocide and Ways for Peace in the Sudan at Jefferson Unitarian Church, Golden CO

This Sunday, May 27, 7 p.m. (sanctuary) JUC's Peace, Liberty and Justice (PL&J) Task Force and the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee (UUSC) Task Force will co-sponsor a forum where you can learn how to get involved in solving the crisis in Darfur. Specialists and activists from the University of Denver led by Professor George Shepherd (a JUC member) will be present at this forum.

The United Nations has established the largest humanitarian effort in Africa to save the people of Darfur and has called upon the Sudan to allow peacekeepers to enter the country to protect people against war crimes. The UUSC has joined with several other humanitarian groups to urge the Bush administration to take action through sanctions to persuade Sudan to end the killings by the Janjaweed.
