My favorite part of that Kony video was of the crying chick who was like I have so many "friends" suffering in Uganda right now and people just need to know and understand what we are doing. Ok first off, this probably a "cause" her college friends talked her into so she didn't feel the guilt of her parents providing a full ride to college for her, and two people just love their activism to feel like they can say look at me world I made a difference, I am a better person than you because I watched the Kony video, bought the KONY lunch box and actually believed they weren't taking money from supposedly educated people. I am in Afghanistan right now. I with a heavy heart know full well I am making no difference, no progress and the people here still hate us and don't want to change. A few flyers and braclets 48,000,000 likes on Facebook isn't going to change the world. Want Kony? Pick a gun and start searching.
