Darfur: the conflict in Crayon

Australian Human Rights researcher, Dr. Annie Sparrow has been working in the Darfur region in Sudan, documenting sexual violence against women.


While she has been there, she has gotten the children of women she speaks to to draw, just by giving them crayons and a scrapbook.
The resultant drawings, and more relevantly, the tales the children tell about the drawings, well, are just heartbreaking. If this is not yet another reason to stop ALL wars, then I don't know what is. Take a look at them for yourselves.

    Remember, the War in Iraq is only one of many Wars, ALL of which should end, NOW.
