KONY 2012.
Don't know what I'm
talking about? Well, keep reading.
Since 1986, Joseph Kony has been in
charge of the Lord's Resistance Army [LRA] in northern
Uganda.
He is #1 on the International Wanted War Criminals List.
When he realized he was running out of soldiers, he began to
kidnap children in the middle of the night and force them into
sexual slavery and/or becoming child soldiers.
Many have been forced to kill people in their villages; friends,
neighbors, even their own families.
This is where the 3 co-founders of Invisible Children step
in.
In 2003, 3 filmmakers, Jason, Laren and Bobby went to Africa to
try and find a story to film.
This turned into so much more. One thing led to another, and in
2006, Invisible Children Inc. was founded.
For the past 6 years, Invisible Children has grown.
I've been working with Invisible Children for the past 2
years, and it is truly life-changing.
Now, we're doing something even larger.
There's a deadline: Dec. 31st, 2012, to get Kony out of
Central Africa.
