HONOREE OF THE BOSTON NIGHT TO SAVE DARFUR

ERIC REEVES

An Extraordinary Advocate and Champion for Peace in Sudan

Eric Reeves is a Professor of English Language and Literature at Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts. He has spent the past 8 years working full-time as a Sudan researcher and analyst, publishing extensively both in the US and internationally. He has testified several times before the Congress, has lectured in academic settings, and has served as a consultant to a number of human rights and humanitarian organizations operating in Sudan. Working independently, he has written on all aspects of Sudan's recent history. He has recently received a generous grant from the Humanity First Initiative of the Omidyar Network to support his research and travel. His book about Darfur, "A Long Day's Dying: Critical Moments in the Darfur Genocide" was released in April 2007. He is also at work on a longer-range project surveying the international response to ongoing war and human destruction in Sudan over the past 18 years ("Sudan — Suffering a Long Way Off").

Boston Night to Save Darfur was honored to recognize the substantial contribution Eric Reeves has made to getting international focus on the ongoing crisis in Darfur, Chad and the Central African Republic.
