Across the country, tens of thousands of students have shown that we will not stand idly by in the face of genocide. From passing legislation to fundraising for relief and protection efforts in Darfur, we have declared that we are the anti-genocide generation.

But we can do more. That's why STAND and Participant Productions are proud to sponsor a nationwide tour of the critically acclaimed new documentary, Darfur Now. Five schools around the country, chosen for their outspoken efforts to fight genocide, will host a special screening of Darfur Now and a concert to raise awareness, funds, and send the message that NOW is the time to end genocide in Darfur.

Explore the site to find a screening or concert in your area, listen to music from the artists on the tour, or watch clips about Darfur, STAND, and Participant Productions.
