Horrible things happen in this world. The horrific slavery in Sudan hardly gets any national press at all in the USA. I have no idea if the NAACP has spoken up on this; I wouldn't expect them to as they're not an international human rights organization. I would expect Oxfam and Amnesty International to speak up. I know A.I. has; I'm not at all sure about Oxfam.

Cynics among us may think this lack of coverage is because in Sudan it's Moslems enslaving Christians and Pagans, and the press treats Islam with kid gloves. I think rather it just doesn't think Americans will care, and the purpose of the press, after all, is to sell advertising, not save the world.

Meanwhile informed good people try to do what they can.
