Thank you to all our members who protested China's role in Sudan in San Francisco on Wednesday. With all the press the demonstrators received, it's clear that America cares deeply about human rights abuses and will not tolerate turning a blind eye to China's complicity in the Darfur genocide. Keep up the good work, and don't forget to call your legislators to let them know you were there!
