Darfur is a terrible place. With innocent people living there, being killed and the women are being rapped. There are 160 camps in Darfur, the camps are their safety place. When they go on the outside of their camp, the women could possibly be rapped or the men could be beaten. The women and men have lost a great deal of things. Their crops and animals were taken, their land was taken, and their family (possibly killed). The enemeies have taken children and have been teaching them how to fight and kill. Why would you do such a thing to children?
The women in Darfur have to go in groups in order to have water. If they do not go in big groups they could be killed or rapped. The Darfur poeple have to get food from the outside. They have to cut wood to stay warm during the night and winter. They believe that if you kill a living thing, it is a sin. They had to get wood outside of the camp and they were hurt bad by the presidents workers. So, now they are cutting off of a living tree and they feel terrible.
As we sit here and get schooling and saftey promised to us, food on the table and we get to stay warm. What do they get? Hurt, killed, and rapped? Why are we special? If they are getting treated like this, then everyone should be getting treated like this. They deserve what we deserve. They should be able to sleep and get wood, and be able to get water with out being scared. People need to speak out and help those who can not help themselves. They need to be helped, and we are the ones that can help.
