The Devil Came on Horseback. Working towards peace in Darfur, Sudan.

In line with the twenty or so other states that have already divested their assets from companies funding the genocide in Sudan, New Hampshire is considering divestment legislation.

Global Grassroots sponsored a Darfur and Divestment Information session on March 4 for the New Hampshire House of Representatives. The session featured The Devil Came on Horseback and a Q&A session led by Daniel Millenson, National Advocacy Director of the Sudan Divestment Task Force. The divestment bill passed through the House on March 5 and has moved on to the Senate. The article below discusses the divestment campaign in New Hampshire.
