The Roadies were here!
On Friday, September 14th our room was visited by the Roadies from the Invisible Children. They screened a film called The Rescue of Joseph Kony's Child Soldiers. This film exposed the atrocities of the longest running war in Africa. For 26 years the Lord's Resistance Army has been terrorizing innocent people by abduction, rape, murder, torture, mutilation and forced indoctrination of young children into Joseph Kony's army of killers. One of the visitors was Amos, a resident of Uganda who survived the war and became a teacher and mentor of adolescents.The UHS art students and students from other classes were moved and shaken by the stories they heard. Currently, the art classes are formulating ideas in which art can be used to raise funds and awareness for this worthy cause.
