This is only the second book to make me furious and wanting to go out and take action. To allow the kind of atrocities he witnessed to continue to go on goes against the phrase "never again" which was said after the holocaust. He witnessed things a person should never have to see, and he bore witness well. I just hope that someday SOON we will do something or else it will be like rwanda, in which we ignored a cry for help. He wrote his story well, and I wish him peace for what we saw.

It has been over 3 years since Brian Steidle was introduced to Darfur, but sadly, nothing has changed. As atrocities continue in Sudan, the world leaders continue to contemplate whether it is genocide, China continues to provide massive shipments of AK 47s to the Sudanese government and Sudanese president symbolically got his hand slapped once again when his quest to lead AU was snubbed in January.
Darfur is not only about Arab Muslims wanting to exterminate Black Muslims. It is mostly about resources. Death, famine and disease cause by endless wars of land, water, oil and racial conflicts have taken their tolls and it can only get worse as the area continues to go through desertification. Nevertheless, this book is a must read because it gives you the first-hand accounts of the atrocities. It doesn't offer any solutions but it creates awareness. After reading the book, you will be faced with thousands of haunting images and one daunting question: Can Darfur be saved?
