520    This is a harrowing memoir of how one person has made a 
       difference: Daoud Hari helped inform the world about the 
       genocide in Darfur. Hari, a Zaghawa tribesman, grew up in 
       a village in the Darfur region of Sudan. In 2003, 
       traditional life was shattered when government-backed 
       militias attacked Darfur's villages with helicopters and 
       on horseback, raping and murdering citizens and burning 
       villages. His family dispersed, Hari escaped. He and 
       friends helped survivors find food, water, and safety. 
       When international aid groups and reporters arrived, Hari 
       offered his services as a translator and guide, using his 
       high school knowledge of languages. In doing so, time and 
       again he risked his life, for the government of Sudan had 
       outlawed journalists in the region. Then, inevitably, his 
       luck ran out and he was captured. Now freed, he is a 
       living witness to genocide.--From publisher description
