Watch the story of the Ugandan Civil war and the children kidnapped
from their beds by the rebel soldiers during the night. Join the
Global Night Commute this Saturday April 29, by making the trek to
sleep in your local city to commemorate the children in Uganda which
travel miles every night to hide away from the Rebel armies who seek
to kidnap and forcibly recruit them. Help get the message out showing
the press and government officials that its time to put pressure on
the Ugandan government to end this war.
