Hey...a few things that have caught my attention in recent days:
"Even as Africa Hungers, Policy Slows Delivery of U.S. Food Aid"

I think its time for some letters to Congress people...
Also, in reading up for a paper on economic development in Africa, I again became aware of the issue of blood diamonds and multi-national companies effect on the developing world. This is a really great article from Dollars and Sense magazine: http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Africa/Continent_Crisis.html
For more info, watch the movie that came out last fall Blood Diamonds, or check out these links: http://pcrproject.com/blog/2007/03/03/the-war-over-diamonds/

Peace!
