Invisible Children

I was just informed about this in school today. Apparently 3 men going to Africa found a story of a civil war in Africa, in which children are being captured, raped, and used to fight in the war.

Please read about it. After watching the documentary on it, I really feel bad for these people. If after reading you don’t want to donate, at least send it to a few people.

Its a very sad world issue. I’m surprised no country has taken action since.

Which war? What, only one? Sadly, this is nothing new.

Read about it and find out about it. I just wanted to post this simply to make people aware of it.

I imagine running over invisible children sometimes when I ride my Coker.

It keeps me entertained when the road goes flat for long distances.

the thing about being 15 is, when you find out new and interesting things, the chances are people older than you already know about them. The use of child soldiers in Africa has been going on for a very long time indeed.

Meastro’s war against invisible children? :thinking:
Strange, I think of riding down the next hill or something… running people over is something I try to avoid.

It’s very sad.
I’ve played a few benifit concerts to support Invisible Children.

NOTE: In the spring of 2003, three young filmmakers traveled to Africa in search of a story.

This has been around for some time now. Almost 6 years. Nonetheless, it is a great cause and a heart-wrenching situation.
