Kony 2012

 Have you ever heard of Joseph Kony? This video is a very famous video called " Kony 2012". This is made by the organization " Invisible Children". This organization tries to help children that are kidnapped from Kony in Uganda.Invisible Children, Inc. is a non-profit organization founded in 2004 to bring awareness to the activities of the LRA in Central Africa, and its leader,  Joseph Kony. Specifically, the group seeks to put an end to the practices of the LRA which include abductions and abuse of children, and forcing them as a soldiers. To this end, Invisible Children urges the United States government to take military action in the central region of Africa. Invisible Children also operates as a charitable organization, soliciting donations and selling merchandise to raise money for their cause. The organization promotes its cause by dispensing films on the internet and presenting in high schools and colleges around the United States.

 Now, who is Kony? Does he really exist? Kony is the leader of LRA. LRA is stand for " Lord's Resistance Army". It has been accused of widespread human rights, violations, including murder, kidnap, child-sex slavery and forcing children to participate in wars. He got about 66,000 children into child-sex slavery. Kony also received a surge of attention in early March 2012 when a 30-minute documentary titled Kony 2012 by film maker Jason Russell for the campaign group Invisible children was released. The intention of the production is to draw attention to Kony in an effort to increase United States involvement in the issue. It's unbelievable. Right? His unbelievable crimes often  make people question if he is a man existing in this world. To that question, yes. He really exist. But we don't know where he is, whether he is dead or not. But, the thing is, he's not in Uganda any more. However, Invisible Children is still trying to find Kony.  


 This video is about Jacob's brother got killed by Joseph Kony, and other children are getting kidnapped, so the invisible children are trying to help the children in Uganda. This video was "hiding fear" to me. I felt bad to Jacob, because he lost his family because of Kony.  It was not a pleasant video to watch, but it was a very interesting video. And I think they should catch Kony as fast as possible.
