Here's a petition you can sign urging Fidelity Investments to divest from a company helping to fund and prolong the genocide in Darfur. From the Save Darfur website:
Divestment offers a powerful way to put economic pressure on the Sudanese government to cooperate with international efforts to end the violence in Darfur.
Fidelity Investments is a major holder of PetroChina, a Chinese oil company that is one of the highest offenders in helping fund the genocide in Darfur.
Help cut off financial support for the government-sponsored violence in Darfur by urging Fidelity and other investment institutions to divest their holdings from PetroChina and other companies doing business with the government of Sudan.

It's strange to have to chastise China for the injustices of its unrestrained and irresponsible Capitalism. Maybe that's why the media have to keep calling them "Communist China." It distracts from the corporate and political greed of the Capitalist world.
There is a lot of guilt to be distributed for the horrors of Darfur. I gladly signed the petition but we can't let it go at that.
