DarfurMetro :: New York and New Jersey's Darfur Information Source
Welcome!
DarfurMetro is a coalition of Darfur advocacy groups in New York and New Jersey and exists to share information, news, and promote events for any group working to end the genocide in the Darfur region of Sudan.
Since 2003, the government of Sudan has waged a campaign of murder, rape, and forced relocation on members of the Massaleit, Fur, and Zaghawa tribes in Darfur through their proxy army, the Janjaweed militias. To date hundreds of thousands have been killed and more than 2.5 million continue to eke out a living in refugee or internally displaced peoples camps, waiting for their chance to finally go home and end this nightmare.
