indeed.

dear xangaland,

have you heard of a film called invisible children? i saw it on friday night… and i’m posting about it, cos i think everyone should see it.

it’s about the thousands of
children who commute into the city every night to avoid abduction by
the LRA. they sleep in the basements of hospitals and in bus stations.
they talk about tupac. they draw pictures of villages burning and
soldiers butchering people. and it’s horrifying and incredible and
amazing.

did you know these things?

• Northern Uganda is called the worst humanitarian crisis in the world today because of the lack of attention
• 1.7 million people forcibly displaced
• An estimated 20- 50,000 children abducted to fight as soldiers
• Tens of thousands of children commuting nightly
• 130 people die per day in Northern Uganda due to violence

there’s an event happening on april 29, called the global commute. check it out.
