John Prendergast

While fighting against genocide in Africa, John Prendergast, human rights activist and co-founder of the Enough Project, was also a Big Brother to Michael Mattocks in Washington, D.C.  He talks about how that relationship helped them both and the book they co-authored, Unlikely Brothers: Our Story of Adventure, Loss, and Redemption.

Event: John Prendergast and Michael Mattocks will be having a conversation with Ann Curry at McNally Jackson Bookstore at 52 Prince Street on Wednesday 6/29 at 1:00 PM.

Sudanese expat Nisrin Elamin, blogger at Stories From Darfur and coordinator of the Support Darfur Project, joins John Prendergast, co-founder of the Enough Project, to discuss Southern Sudan's current referendum on independence and what it means for the troubled country.

In the past four years alone, at least 200,000 people have died as a result of conflicts in Sudan. Don Cheadle and human rights activist John Prendergast discuss six concrete, simple ways to help end genocide in Darfur—from writing a letter to joining an activist organization.
