Refugees International's October New York Circle event featured NBC News anchor Ann Curry and RI Board Member and actor Matt Dillon at The National Arts Club. Ann presented an exhibit of photographs taken during her reporting from Chad and the Darfur region of Sudan. Matt screened his short documentary, "South Sudan: An Enduring Strugle", that he filmed while on an assessment mission with RI in February. Read more about the event on our blog [1].
