I'm sure everyone reading this has either a son, daughter, younger sibling, cousin, niece, nephew, or knows a young child. What I want you to do is picture those children. Now imagine them being abducted in their sleep. The girls being forced into sex slavery and the boys being handed rifles and taught how to kill. Sounds inhuman, right?
In Uganda, Africa, over 30,000 children have been abducted by a man named Joseph Kony. What's his motive? He wants nothing more then the feeling of power. Right now, the US has sent a small group of soldiers to Uganda to aid their army in the capture of Kony. However, since it is not in the interest of the US government, they are threatening to take back the soldiers by the end of 2012 if Kony is not captured and arrested. You can watch a video about this here.
Here's how you can help arrest Joseph Kony. We want the US government to know that it in the interest of the US citizens to bring justice and save these children. We're doing this by making Kony famous. Spread the word to your family and friends, post it on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest. Be a part of "Cover the Night" on April 20, 2012.
You have the power to bring justice and save over 30,000 children. Use that power.
