Darfur: Our Walls Bear Witness. Whose walls? The walls of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. The inside of this place sears your mind and memory. But it does not protect you from the present. And it certainly doesn't protect the people of Darfur (and now increasingly of Chad) from the infamy and indifference with which the so-called "world community" has treated them. But, until November 26, the walls of the museum will bear witness to the slow and excruciating but relentless murder of the black and Muslim population of Darfur by militias, authorized by the regime in Khartoum, made up of Arab and Muslim terrorists. They go into a village and slaughter, simply slaughter. Almost nobody cares, and Kofi Annan seems to care the least. Who are these people that we should worry about them? Kofi has greater things to worry about. He worries about whether he gets invited to dinner at Henry Kravis's house. President Bush apparently does worry. But will anyone support his instinct to rescue the victims of Arab casual cruelty? Will Nancy Pelosi, for example, or Harry Reid? Eight photographers--their work both raw and tender--have participated in this witness to the fact that it's not "never again." It is, instead, "again and again." And "again." Among them are Ron Haviv, Ryan Spencer Reed, Brian Steidle (a U.S. Marine who served as adjunct to the African Union Mission in Darfur) and Michal Ronnen Safdie, whose mesmerizingly intense and intimate photos were featured (again along with other photographers) the special Darfur issue of May 15, 2006. The images of the eight are being shown every night through November 26 on the museum's walls. It's ironic--isn't it?--that a commemorative museum of the Jewish catastrophe should have to memorialize the catastrophe of Muslims. Not that it needed persuasion. This work was undertaken by the museum's staff voluntarily and eagerly. On the museum's homepage is a Darfur link. There is much in there. Start with "View Images" and then move on. And there's another web exhibit, "Ripples of Genocide: Journey through Eastern Congo."
