If you're too lazy to watch;
1) A man name Joseph Kony is a leader of a rebel group called the LRA in Central Africa.
2) Kony uses his army of rebels to abduct children from villages. The children (mostly boys) are then forced to hurt or kill their loved ones or friends. The girls are used as sex slaves for the rest of the rebel army.
3) The year 2012 is the year Kony will be taken out of the picture. By spreading this video and other media across the nation, the people/news/government will remain focused on Kony.
4) The goal of this whole movement is to make Joseph Kony famous. By tweeting/contacting celebrities and calling government officials you are helping spread the word about Kony.
This group is aimed at students from McGill who want to take part in raising awareness about Joseph Kony. You can do as little as share the video, or as much as making/buying posters to put up.

WE WILL NOT BE HOSTING AN ENORMOUS MEET UP. If you want to participate in the event it is better if you go with a group of friends. This way we can discourage a mob mentality and hopefully separate ourselves from people who will be vandalizing public property.
