Important Action Needed

In just a few days the leaders of African nations will meet to decide on who will assume leadership of the African Union Assembly. Sudan is one of the nations wanting to take this important seat. The Sudanese government has continually rejected the help of United Nations peacekeepers to help stop the genocide in their country. If the Sudan takes a position of power within the African Union, it will be in an even stronger position to prevent the United Nations from taking action. The delegates will meet from January 22-30, so it is imperative that swift action be taken.

Please take a moment to visit Amnesty International and take steps to prevent this from happening.
