African Action Rally For Darfur in NYC
Join Africa Action and Partners in a Rally to Stop Genocide in Darfur!
WHAT: A rally at the U.S. Mission at the United Nations to deliver thousands of handprints and messages from all over the country demanding decisive U.S. action to end genocide in Darfur.
WHEN: May 22, 2008; Noon - 2:00pm.
WHERE: U.S Mission to the United Nations in New York, 140 East 45th St, between 3rd and Lexington Avenues.
WHY NOW: The U.S. takes over the presidency of the U.N. Security Council on June 1, 2008. This is our opportunity to demand decisive action. Specifically, that the U.S. uses its influence in the U.N. to push for the deployment of well equipped peacekeepers in Darfur.
