Invisible Children

One thing that really stuck out to me during the video we watched is how it took seventeen years for this war going on in Africa to really get noticed by the media.  You would think that a war where kids and civilians are being killed and abducted would make the front page news everyday, but before Invisible Children was created hardly anybody knew of the war going on in central Africa.  I think that this program is doing a lot of good in giving the people of Africa a voice, but I think that the real goal should be to deploy more troops to central Africa.  Last month Obama sent 100 troops to Uganda to help out, but I think that he should send more.  I don't really think that the crisis tracker and protection plan help out that much, I think that the best thing to do would be to take action against the LRA.  I like the fact that we are helping out the Invisible children foundation.
