Today, a group of actors, academics, athletes and others started a torch relay at the Chad-Sudan border. The aim of the torch relay is to draw attention to China's continued business with the genocidal Sudanese government. China is Sudan's largest oil customer, which could allow it to apply some pressure to Sudan. Hopefully, groups like Olympic Dream for Darfur will draw attention to the 2008 Olympic Host's support of Sudan. A genocide is occurring as you read this, it is time that it is stopped.
