Women In Darfur

Refugees International is an organization to save the refugees in darfur. Here is the link. The United Nation is warning us that Darfur could be the worst human crisis in Sudan scence 1998.  Response to this crisis has been slow and ineffective. Even though there has been a wide spread of help the government of Sudan and its allies on the UN security council have blocked any punishing authorization of masterminding the violent campaign in Darfur. The women get the most discrasment in this crisis. “As you have raped me, please don’t leave me alive… kill me with your gun” begged Almina to her rapist. “May shame kill you” was the reply of the Janjaweed militiaman who raped her on July 4th. The women in darfur are so  courageous. They have a strong scence of resistance. These women are determined to survive and give themselves more tasks in their camps. For example, to get fire wood. When they leave their camps they give themselves the fear of getting killed and raped by the Janjaweed. But they still get things to let their family live and eat. Rape survivors are a reflection of shame of the Rape act. Also rape survivors are shamed to come back to their camps.

Rape has become one of the biggest crime against women in Darfur. It has given another way for the Janjaweed military to attack darfurians again. The janjaweed has already taken people out of their homes. The Women in Darfur must keep collecting fire wood, water or working from the fields. While doing this the women in Darfur and also the children are in jeopardy of getting raped, beat or death. Hundreds of Rapes have been reported and are still increasing. Yet there are still more then hundreds of women and children that have and can get raped but won’t have a chance to report it. In a place where rape is a big place the victims are often disliked by their own families and town. These ungrateful women have been forced to leave their town and also get punished for prohibited pregnancy as a consequence of being raped.
