I'm with the higgmeister on this. If it is important enough to post a thread about, tell us why.
Joseph Kony is a Uganda leader of LRA, a rebel leader who kidnaps and uses children as troops. There is a worldwide movement of awareness on April 20th. In the last day the video and movement has gone wild. My question was, is this Obamas chance to become Mandela, because I see election year hero all over it. That is why I posted a thread.
This is a video about Joseph KONY in Uganda who is kidnapping and killing children.
It is a public relations type video. This is the Lord’s Resistance Army (11:58) which is why Obama sent troops (advisors) to Uganda.
This group” was successful in influencing Obama to make this decision with the help of 20 Culture makers (Hollywood names) and 12 Policy makers such as John Kerry, Clinton, Harry Reid, Romney, Condolesa Rice, George Bush Jr., Boehner, etc. (23:10-24:48) and are listed on their website.
“Our goal is to change the conversation of our culture (25:28) and ask who is Joseph Kony.”
They have kits to track the impact of the donations.
They talk about covering the night on April 20th meet at sundown as a movement to plaster posters everywhere and that everything will be upside down.
They claim that “the people” have the ability to change everything because we are bigger than those with the money. “The people of the world can protect each other.”
1. They are extremely organized – reminds me of the left.
2. April 20 (26:26)
3. Cover the night (26:28)
4. Upside down (27:33) (like Van Jones)
