A few weeks ago I did a post about Kony 2012. If you watched it then you know that Joseph Kony is the warlord for the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA), in Africa. They use the word Lord as in: a Christian group acting in the name of God. Say what?! Joseph Kony and the LRA abducts people, mostly children, who are forced to fight as soldiers, slaves and sex objects. He’s been doing this since the 1980’s. Definitely not what Jesus would do. The people of Uganda, where the LRA began (but has since spread across 3 other countries), have been working to peacefully end the LRA’s tirade on their country 5 times. It hasn’t worked, obviously.
However, there is hope. People have been working to rescue the LRA’s victims and rehabilitate them and their nation. Watch the second video, put out by Invisible Children, to learn more about what’s already happening and how you can help bring Joseph Kony to justice. If nothing else, please watch the video and share it on Facebook and Twitter. Thank you!
