A presentation of photographs and clips of film that we recorded in
the Summer of 2007, attempting to put a human face on the Darfuri
rebel movement and to explain the crisis from the point of view of the
people who in a sense started the whole thing by standing up to the
Sudanese government. We will focus on the ordinary (and
not-so-ordinary) people who, frustrated by decades of marginalization
by their country's rulers and inspired by the limited successes of the
war in South Sudan, rose against Khartoum and have since suffered the
terrible consequences. We will place Darfur in a broader context,
showing how the conflicts there are part of a longer and deeper
history of the Sudan and of the Sahel region as a whole.
