Extra Credit: Darfur Presentation

I really enjoyed the Darfur presentation. The guy used a power point presentation to further illustrate the ongoing problems in Darfur. What I thought was really cool was that he gave us this phone number that was like a hot line for your local governor or house representative and all you had to do is dial the number 1-800-436-6243 and then put in your zip code and you could get directly connected to the governor and tell her to pass the bill that will help stop genocide. Another thing that I thought was cool was that they have a website that grades presidential candidates and other politicians on their participation in stopping genocide. They use the same scale of grading from A+ to an F. I thought that this should have been a required thing to go to because it really enlightened people about the truth and also showed many different ways of helping prevent genocide. They way he shared his information was really cool and the power point had lots of interesting pictures of the things going on in Darfur.
