The Short List of Things to Do
Darfur Now
Bless Don Cheadle and George Clooney for raising awareness of the slaughter in Sudan, but the true stars of this worthy documentary are people like Hejewa Adam, whose village was ravaged by the invaders and who has taken up arms to fight them. As the world commiserates impotently, the Sudanese prove that every tragedy has its heroes.
