In May 2005, Emanuel hosted an event to educate ourselves about the horrors continuing to unfold in Darfur and other regions in Sudan. We seek support for both international efforts to stop the genocide, as well as local efforts in Chicago to help Sudanese refugees. Download and view a pdf version of the PowerPoint presentation produced by the American World Jewish Services' Executive Director Ruth Messigner, and edited by our own Stephen Melamed. Entitled, "Not on My Watch," the presentation is a photo-journal taken in the refugee camps in Sudan. Also available is the AJWS 'Take Action' section of their web site for the e-mail/letter writing campaign to Congress about Sudan. You can use this form letter to send your message to Congress.
