Discussion With Authors Of Darfur Book

date: Sunday, October 26th, 2008

time: 2 PM

description: Kevin Funk and Lucy Parsons collective member Steve Fake, authors of the new book Scramble for Africa: Darfur Intervention and the USA, analyze the current humanitarian crisis in Darfur and the activist movements surrounding it, thereby taking on both the US government and the Save Darfur coalition alike. The authors present the basic information on the political and military aspects of the conflict, examine the options, and suggest ways forward, always with a concern for the broader international implications and for the hundreds of thousands of victims.

John Ghazvinian, author of Untapped: The Scramble for Africa's Oil, calls their book: "Explosive, masterful, and impeccably fair. Consider it the thinking person's guide to Darfur."

The authors have been researching and writing about Darfur since early 2006. Their writings have been published in such media as Foreign Policy in Focus, Sudan Tribune, Common Dreams, CounterPunch, ZNet, and Black Commentator.
