KONY 2012 & Invisible Children Inc.

PLEASE TAKE SOME TIME TO READ THIS 
So I know this might not "fit in" with the rest of my blog, but it deserves a place everywhere possible to raise awareness! ♥


Basically, in Uganda there is a terrible man named Joseph Kony who is the leader of the LRA (Lord's Resistance Army). The army, at any time, invade Ugandan villages and abduct young children - children as young as 2 or 3 years old. These children are given guns and weapons and forced to become a part of this rebellion, demanded to kill and injure people including their own families. The boys become child soldiers and the girls are used as sex slaves. If this isn't shocking enough, it has been going on for 30 years already, with over 30,000 innocent Ugandan children taken from their lives and forced into the LRA.

One of the most shocking facts behind all of this is that this man, Kony, is fighting for NO REAL REASON, he is just trying to maintain his power over the "army" he has created. He is a disgusting human being and this campaign aims to make Kony famous - not to celebrate him, but to promote his name in the hopes of raising awareness of his crimes and getting him arrested at last.

I promise you that if you watch the video you will be subjected to intense emotion, you will be inspired and moved to you will want to try and get involved, to make a change.
Even if you just sign your email up to the pledge on the wesbite you will be helping immensely.

I've already signed up and donated and shared the news. Now it's your turn to help make a positive change.
We are all one, and we can make this happen.

MAKE KONY FAMOUS. STOP HIM AT LAST.
