Unbelievable film to raise awareness of the LRA and Joseph Kony...I mean, people using social media for good, and to change the world? I've seen it in on the PJ forums, the donations, the surprise gifts, the words of support and love...this is taking it to another level. Please, Y'all HAVE to check this out.

    I haven't looked into this issue completely but I found this article interesting.

    Yeah its a strange one. Supporting an army that itself has been using child soldiers (Ugandan army minimum age is/was 13) to catch an undoubtably evil man. However if this campaign begins to shed light on a horribly neglected issue in that part of the world then i'm all for it. If it gets people interested, talking and campaigning then hopefully something good will come from it regardless if this particular campaign is sucessful or not.

    Thanks for posting; it's inevitable that their will be an automatic backlash to a group like this. Obviously I don't condone the Uganda army raping a pillaging, but it seems that this group is TRYING to take the right pathway and do the right thing to get Kony out of there. The fact that he is the number one bad guy on the international "Badguy" list, and the fact that our government agreed to send a small group of "support" troops to help the cause helps give credibility to the cause, in my opinion.

    I'm not usually a sheep who jumps on the bandwagon to this kind of thing, but this really hit a special nerve...as much as we bitch about our country, we won the lottery by being born here.

    I just hope that this movement can somehow bring about an end to Kony's terror.
