Just in the last 5 years their have been so many conflicts and economic problems going on in Africa alone that if these actions were to be relocated to Europe or the Americas we would be calling it World War III.
Remember that while Invisible Children focuses on ending a large injustice, it is just one problem. It is just one region in the continent. As of 2010, over 9 million refugees had been displaced. Thousands had been slaughtered over civil war issues. In 2011, East Africa experienced the world's worst food crisis. High prices forced food out. Civil conflicts made food difficult to obtain. Leaving 12 million starving and in need of water and basic sanitation. After decades of living under corrupt governments, Middle East and North Africa experienced a combination of the global financial crisis, rising costs of living, high unemployment . The Rwanda Genocide. AIDS in Africa. Crisis in Libya. The Oil Crisis...The list goes on and on. Africa is a continent living in crisis, living in turmoil. Remember this everyday when you go to wake up and every night when you go sleep. Be grateful that survived another day. Be grateful that woke up to breathe another day of life, to enjoy another day of life. Wake up and acknowledge those who cannot enjoy another day. Wake up and acknowledge those who probably will not make it through the day. Wake up and ACT against these injustices. Wake up and help.
