John was broadcast on NPR's Talk of the Nation on May 15, 2006. Michael Clough was the guest and he discussed his op-ed piece that appeared in Sunday's Los Angeles Times (May 14, 2006) where he argued that using the word "genocide" is both misleading and counter productive when applied to the violence occurring in Darfur. Michael was the director of the Africa program at the Council on Foreign Relations from 1987 to 1996. He is the author of Free at Last? United States Policy Toward Africa and the End of the Cold War. John was listening to the program and called in to give his opinion and ask Mr. Clough a couple of questions.
