Invisible Children

So near the end of the day, I went to an assembly at my school about child soldiers in Northern Uganda. We saw a movie about it, heard from a guy from Northern Uganda who somehow managed to evade being a soldier, and it really frightened me how this could happen. I can't remember the whole story, but I remember this guy, Joseph Kony, being in charge of the Northern Ugandan army, which is made up mostly of children that were abducted from their homes. If anyone else has the full details, let me know please.

    I believe Kony is actually in charge of the Lord's Resistance Army, a rebel group that originated in Northern Uganda, but no longer operates there. They abduct children, men, and women to be used in their ranks and are now abducting in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Central African Republic, and southern Sudan.

    The movie I saw only focused on the children.
