On April 27th I will begin a fast of water only in solidarity with the people of Darfur and as a personal expression of outrage at a world that is somehow able to stand by and watch innocent men, women and children needlessly die of starvation, thirst and disease.

With his crackpot denial that HIV causes AIDS, his appointment of a health minister who recommended beets and garlic garlic as treatment for South Africa's more than 5 million HIV infected citizens, his corrupt government, his incomprehensible support of Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe and his refusal to use South Africa's...

Yesterday the International Criminal Court charged Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir with war crimes and crimes against humanity for his 'essential role' in the murder, rape, torture, pillaging and displacement of millions in the Darfur region of Sudan.

On March 4th the International Criminal Court will announce its findings in their case against Sudanese President Omer Al-Bashir. It is probable that an arrest warrant will be issued against Al-Bashir for war crimes, crimes against humanity and possibly genocide. ICC Chief Prosecutor, Luis Moreno-Ocampo conducted his investigation under challenging...

At 6 a.m. on the morning of Aug. 25, Kalma camp, home to 90,000 displaced Darfuris, was surrounded by Sudanese government forces. By 7 a.m., 60 heavily armed military vehicles had entered the camp, shooting and setting straw huts ablaze. Terrified civilians -- who...

Yesterday, as Secretary General Ban Ki Moon congratulated China on the staging of a successful Olympics at the UN's noon briefing, the Sudanese government was staging something too. Yesterday Khartoum hit a new low as it unleashed its forces on a camp for internally displaced persons in South Darfur.

This post is a response to Farrow's Darfur Olympics & Our Olympic Shame by Christoper J. Finlay

Interesting perspective, although Mr. Finlay got one thing wrong -- I have never called for an Olympic boycott or believed for one second that a boycott of the games would be an...

The International Criminal Court is on the verge of issuing an arrest warrant for Sudanese President Omar el-Bashir for crimes against humanity. According to my sources, at this very moment, China is preparing to introduce a United Nations resolution to suspend ICC jurisdiction over Sudan. The Chinese backed resolution proposes...

the murder yesterday of seven peacekeepers in Darfur is yet another example of the tragic failure of the international community. Almost a year ago, the United Nations authorized a protection force of 26,000, but today only a fraction of that number is deployed. The international community has failed to support...

Yesterday President Bush announced that he will attend the opening ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics. His decision is regrettable -- a missed opportunity for the United States of America to stand strong for the anguished people of Darfur and Burma as well as for the Tibetans in their long struggle...

A current, mini-analysis of conditions in Darfur, eastern Chad and the Central African Republic -- a triangle of human suffering.

I have recently returned from my ninth trip into the region

Darfur: Incomprehensibly, more than five years have passed since the government of Sudan and its proxy killers, Arab...

I have been taking photographs in Darfur, Eastern Chad and the Central African Republic since the early months of the Darfur genocide in 2004. They have appeared in major publications around the world. I have now organized 300 of these photos for public display and use on my website,

I would like to thank the US Mission and Security Council President Ambassador Khalilzad, U.S. Special Envoy Williamson and the members of the Council for inviting me here today and for holding this meeting.

I know you have all just returned from the Darfur region -- and I have...

When International Criminal Court Chief Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo stood before the Security Council last week to plead for support for his indictments of two perpetrators of mass atrocities and crimes against humanity in Darfur, who dared to stand strong against the Sudanese regime? Who threw their full support to the...

But what the candidates don't say is this; It is past time that President Bush, who has called the atrocities in Darfur 'genocide' assumes desperately needed moral leadership. He should lead the UN Security Council in standing up to the Sudanese regime, which continues to place every possible obstacle in...

In recent weeks there has been an alarming spike in the violence in Darfur with government bombings in north Darfur where a school and marketplace were attacked leaving more than a dozen civilian dead and many more wounded. Among the those killed were 6 school children. The international community was...

This week marks a grim and largely unnoticed anniversary. On April 27, 2007, International Criminal Court judges issued arrest warrants for two men involved in the massive, ongoing atrocities in the Darfur region of western...

Our campaign, Dream for Darfur has been in dialogue with the Olympic sponsors for nearly a year now. In February Steven Spielberg resigned from his role as artistic director of the Beijing Olympics declaring that in the face of genocide it "cannot be business as usual." Mr. Spielberg's act of...

The following was adapted from my piece in the NY Daily News:

There are few institutions in the world that claim to embody and protect humanity's highest dreams and values. The International Olympic Committee, custodian of the Olympic Games, is one of them.

Any organization that lays claim to...

The dictionary definition of "fail" is "the omission of expected or required action."

I am torn as to whether to discuss the failure of moral leadership by the IOC, or the phenomenon of low expectations.

The Dream for Darfur IOC Report Card documents how the IOC has shirked the messy...
