Ending Genocide: Gadu Kistana, Ethiopia

What's happening now? Updates on Activist Movements

UPDATE: July 30th, 2008 -- Karadzic, the Serbian leader accused of organizing crimes against humanity and genocide most notably against the 8,000 men and boys who lives were exterminated in the Balkans. -- This is the proof that justice can prevail, giving hope and ending impunity.

Radovan Karadzic personified impunity for more than a
decade, but his efforts to run the clock on justice have failed.
This arrest offers hope to the victims of the horrific crimes
that occurred there.

Gadu Kistana, Ethiopia

My newest Sponsor child! Askalu of Ethiopia.

Her name is Askalu from the Gadu Kistana community of Ethiopia. She is a beautiful girl that I am sponsoring through Save the Children. Hopefully, when I go to Egypt in February 2009, I will be able to take a side trip to Ethiopia and see her and her family.

I really applaud you for sponsering a child from one of the countries with gross human rights violations which is currently starving its people.

I stumbled upon your blog and I was happy when I saw "I blog for Human Rights" statement on your blog. God bless you for that!
I am originally from Ethiopia, a land of no human rights especially for Oromos, Anuaks and Gambelas. I wanted to bring to your attention some of the human rights violations and crimes against humanity as reported by Human Rights Watch.

I hope you will help to free these oppressed people by continuing your courageous and noble activism.

Sara Cartwright, Human Rights Activist said...: Thank you Oromantic. HRW.org is my homepage so I remember the Ethiopia report there quite vividly.

I hope I can make your home country a safe place for your people to live again. I have only heard of the Anuaks by reference name, I'll do some more research on that. Thanks!; June 30, 2008 7:49 AM
