In eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo, more than 370,000 people have fled their homes since last December. The conflict centers around fighting between a Tutsi renegade commander, Rwandan rebels, and the Congolese National Army. If the fighting continues, UN officials say it will be one of the worst humanitarian emergencies in the world.

what if we're paying attention? what can we do? i guess it's hard to know the answer. i'm glad you made this pod, and i'm glad it's on TV. it's informative and moving.

Well, what you can do, is put pressure on your leaders for them to pay attention. Join, for example, friendsofthecongo.org, donate to the Dikembe Mutombo Foundation, or other smaller organizations like congostar.org,

Thank you so much for this wonderful pod on the Congo - it was very informative. I have been an activist for Darfur for several months now, and need to get more involved with other parts of Africa. Please keep up the good work.

what can we do? If there is anything besides spreading the word and getting the public involved I want to know. We need to do whatever we can to protect these people against another genocide!
WHAT CAN I DO??????-
