Great journalism on a horrid topic.

As a follow up to the last post, I'm putting up this link: http://www.newyorker.com/fact/content/?040830fa_fact1

It's a first hand account about Darfur written for the New Yorker by Samantha Power, the same woman who wrote the book A Problem from Hell: America in the age of Genocide. (I haven't read the book, but my father has.) It's very long and also pretty depressing at times, but it's pretty essential if you have any interest in the conflict.
