The Translator

a Tribesman's Memoir of Darfur
May 27, 2008
Daoud Hari belongs to the Zaghawa tribe from Darfur (Sudan). After his village was destroyed by the Sudan military and rebels he escaped to a refuge camp in Chad. There he put his limited English and fluent Arabic and Zaghawa to work, risking his life to act as a translator for journalists and aid groups from all over the world wanting to interview people still alive in villages in Darfur. A very thought provoking, very readable, eyewitness account about a disturbing current event.
