This benefit event in June 2008 sought to raise awareness about the ferocious war in the Democratic Republic of Congo that has left over 5 million people dead, more than any other conflict since World War II. Within this crisis are the incalculable casualties: the tens of thousands of women and girls who have been systematically raped, mutilated, or tortured by soldiers from both foreign militias and the Congolese army. The world knows little of these women. They and their children have suffered and died in silence. Only now are their shocking stories beginning to be told. Speakers include Eve Ensler (V-Day) and Jeffrey Gettleman (New York Times)
