In September 2004, then-Secretary of State Colin Powell termed the atrocities being committed there \"genocide\" -- and yet two years later things have only gotten worse. 3.5 million Sudanese are going hungry, 2.5 million have been displaced by violence, and 400,000 have died in Darfur to date. Both shocked and energized by this ongoing tragedy, Cheadle teamed up with leading activist John Prendergast to focus the world's attention. \u003ci\u003eNot on Our Watch\u003c\/i\u003e, their empowering book, offers six strategies readers themselves can implement: Raise Awareness, Raise Funds, Write a Letter, Call for Divestment, Start an Organization, and Lobby the Government. Each of these small actions can make a huge difference in the fate of a nation, and a people--not only in Darfur, but in other crisis zones such as Somalia, Congo, and northern Uganda.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Don Cheadle,John Prendergast\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Grand Central Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.24h x 5.82w x 0.74d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781401303358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/19\/2007 pg. 54\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2007 pg. 203\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eVanity Fair\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2007 pg. 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2007 pg. 19\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDon Cheadle\u003c\/strong\u003e is an Academy Award-nominated actor who has appeared in \u003cem\u003eTraffic\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eOcean's Eleven\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eCrash\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eHotel Rwanda\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003cstrong\u003eJohn Prendergast\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Senior Advisor of the International Crisis Group, a former official in the Clinton White House, and a veteran of several NGOs and think tanks in Africa and the U.
