I had intended to read the Don Cheadle book but I don't think I can squeeze it in and since the availability of Darfur resources is somewhat limited for me, I also watched the Vice Magazine video series.

In fact, I think I'm going to start it tonight so I can have it reviewed by Tuesday when it is released. It can keep the other two books I'm reading company.

That was interesting. I thought that Darfur's genocide was close to what Rwanda went through with their tribal war. I read 'Left to Tell' by Immaculee Ilibagiza. I was kind of surprised that the root of the problem is over oil. It seems like they--the government or oil companies--do a pretty good job of keeping their true motives a secret. I felt pretty sad over all the trash in the streets and the kids addicted to glue. I was also pretty nervous that those guys would go to jail, but pretty lucky that they escaped.

I read The Translator earlier this year and thought that it was an amazing read. I look forward to reading your thoughts on the other books on this list. I have the Don Cheadle book...now might be a good time to read it. What a great list. I read The Translator earlier this year and thought that it was an amazing read.
