[Ubuntu-be] Make Kony Famous

[Wouter Vandenneucker]

Since Ubuntu is about humanity and we actually have an african roots, I
figured this project might interest most of us:

It's a documentary of about 30 minutes about an action group named
"Invisible Children" who are doing everything possible to make Kony famous.
Kony is a Rebel Leader who abducts kids in their sleep and forces the boys
to fight and the girls to become sexslaves.

Now, I know the mailinglist isn't supposed to be used for propaganda, but
this felt slightly different because the message at the end of documentary
is a call for volunteers.
I'm not saying we should act on this as Ubuntu-be, but I figured there are
some people on this mailinglist who, just like me, do want to get involved
in this project.
There is a facebook event to "coördinate" the action on april  20:

I do believe this is relevant for the Ubuntu community, because the
children of today (no matter from where they are) are the ubuntu users of
tomorrow.
That and mainly the fact that every child deserves a decent childhood and
an even better future drive me to send you all this mail.

I'd like to apologize though for propagating through this medium, it just
seemed the most convenient way to reach all interested fellow ubuntueros.

Kind regards
