The White Burden

Kony Kony Kony.

I really think people should go read up more about Uganda, and try putting things into context. And then start supporting. I'm not saying that we shouldn't stop Kony, but I don't like the idea of people supporting and buying things sold by an organization they know little of.

Saying all that, I guess that they're one of the few organizations that have managed to spread awareness really extensively. Now that they've managed to turn the world against this lowlife, I think thinks will get much better in Uganda.

I also think that if I were there, to witness the atrocities, I'd be wanting to storm into his tent and kill him, guns blazing.

Why do people of political stature need enough support to do something? Why can't people just do something to help? Why is there even red tape and constraints when people desperately need help?

I guess then people would call for a one world government. That's bad, of course. But it's gonna happen really soon.

Boring things aside, I saw a BBC tweet about what female journalists should take heed of in the front lines. Super cool leh. :)
