the U.N is SLOW.......2005-06-13
It is a tragedy that Western countries cannot act when it is most necessary and vital.
The world must react to immobility! I know i'm only talking and not acting but if everybody realized what is going in Sudan (among other places) the world probably wouldn't be in this sad situation.

IT'S PRETTY SAD IF YOU'RE TRYING TO RESELL THIS CD WITH ZERO FUNDING GOING TOWARDS THE GENOCIDE RELIEF FUNDS. PEOPLE, IF YOU WANT THIS CD TAKE A LOOK AT THIS AND BUY FROM THIS SITE...I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT THE MONEY WILL BE SENT TO HELP WHERE IT IS MOST NEEDED. According to the UN, the conflict in Sudan has created the world's worst humanitarian crisis, with more than one million people driven from their homes and up to 50,000 people killed by government supported militias (CNN 8/31/04). The systematic rape of women and the murder of children has been widely reported.
"We're trying to address two things with this CD," says Waxploitation CEO Jeff Antebi, the album's executive producer. "The first is to get the United Nations to declare the ongoing atrocities a genocide, so that real action can take effect to stop what is obviously an `ethnic cleansing' taking place, in violation of the 1948 Geneva Convention. The second is to raise money for the dire relief situation effecting over 1 million innocent civilians who might die from starvation and disease if aid does not reach them right now."
In 1994 in Rwanda an estimated 800,000 people were killed in just 100 days, in one of the worst genocides of the last century. One of the primary reasons cited for why this happened was a lack of outside intervention by the United Nations. Even with UN troops on the ground in Rwanda, they were unable to intervene because it was not legally declared a Genocide until too late.
Waxploitation will donate all of the profits from the Genocide in Sudan CD to the United Nations Refuge Agency and UNICEF (www.unhcr.ch and www.UNICEF.org ), build awareness for solutions that anyone can easily assist with, including signing the petition at (www.darfurgenocide.org/action.htm), and guide people to protests and events in their area.
The CD will be available at most major retailers as well as at www.waxploitation.com/genocide.
