Fighting for Darfur: public action and the struggle to stop genocide

Author Rebecca Hamilton was a key player in the international human rights movement. Drawing on her conversations with the likes of Colin Powell, Michael Gerson, Kofin Annan and Robert Zoellick, this is an inspirational story of how regular citizens can affect foreign policy, and reignite our leaders with a sense of passion and morality. Rebecca Hamilton is a special correspondent for The Washington Post in Sudan with support from the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting and a fellow at the New America Foundation. In 2007 she was selected as a Global Young Leader on Genocide Prevention for spearheading the campaign for Harvard University to divest from companies doing business with Sudan and working with internally displaced populations in Sudan. She worked for the prosecution at the International Criminal Court in The Hague, including on their historic Darfur cases. Currently a resident of New York, Hamilton is a graduate of Harvard Law School and the Harvard Kennedy School, as well as a former Open Society fellow.
