Invisible Children: "Go" and "Global Night Commute"
Invisible Children: “Go” & “Global Night Commute”
In 2007, Invisible Children posed a challenge to youth around the world: raise one million dollars in 100 days
to rebuild schools in war-torn northern Uganda.
Thousands of students rallied, and 20 were rewarded
with an adventure of a lifetime: a trip into Africa’s
longest running war. This is the story of a generation
discovering that it does not matter where you are from,
but where you go!
These short films take a behind the scenes look at
Invisible Children and its journey through the successful grassroots events, the Global Night Commute. Find out
what it takes to start a movement that brings hope to
those suffering the effects of a 20-year long war in
Northern Uganda. Watch as the Invisible Children
National Tour inspires thousands of people to share
the story of Northern Uganda. Sleep alongside more
than 80,000 people at the Global Night Commute. See
how their voices carried through the hall of the United
States Senate. |
