Tim's post on LeaderNotes about the Invisible Children got me thinking. Macy's guest post there reinforced the message. I've spent several hours today reading about and watching the videos prepared by the Invisible Children, Inc.
I won't pretend this post is particularly topical, only that in a single day I've found myself convinced that this issue matters. I hope you'll help spread the word.
Saturday, April 29, 2006 -- this Saturday -- the Night Commute (a reference to the nightly commute of thousands of children who walk miles each evening just to find a safe gathering place to sleep) will be held in every major city in the country, including three cities in Utah (many Utahns will be surprised to learn we have three major cities).
The location of Salt Lake's camp, Gallivan Plaza, will be 50 yards from my downtown condo. I'll get some video to post tomorrow.
Below is a video posted on YouTube by Invisible Children, Inc.
If you'd like to buy a DVD, a bracelet or make a donation, visit the Invisible Children web site.
I'll be attending the Global Commute with a couple of friends in San Jose this weekend. Thanks for posting about this. We have to let people know!
