A Heartbreaking and Inspiring Anthology

Darfur Diaries is a powerful and moving collection of firsthand accounts from survivors of the Darfur genocide. These stories, written by both men and women, young and old, paint a vivid picture of the horrors of war and the resilience of the human spirit.

The genocide in Darfur began in 2003 when the Sudanese government and its allied militias launched a campaign of violence against the region's black African population. The violence has resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people and the displacement of millions more.

About the Author

The Darfur Diaries project was founded by two former aid workers, Omer Ismail and Brendan O'Malley. Ismail is a Sudanese journalist and human rights activist who has worked extensively in Darfur. O'Malley is an American photographer and filmmaker who has covered the conflict in Darfur for over a decade.

Ismail and O'Malley spent years collecting the stories in Darfur Diaries. They traveled to remote villages and refugee camps, interviewing survivors and listening to their stories. The result is a powerful and moving anthology that gives voice to the voiceless.
