For those of you few people out there who have yet to see the powerful, moving film, Invisible Children, you need to watch it - Invisible Children Movie, or order the DVD at Invisible Children Website
UNA YPIC groups across the US have banded with Invisible Children in their national calls to action: the Global Night Commute in 2006 and Displace Me in 2007. These major events helped to make American citizens aware of the story of the children in Northern Uganda, who commute daily to escape from abduction from rebels. The movie has been widely watched in schools, homes, churches and classrooms and through pure grassroots efforts, created the largest national effort on the part of young people to end a crisis in another country.
These three inspiring filmmakers have come up with their next film to tell the next leg in the story about these displaced children in Uganda.
"Black is for Sunday" follows filmmaker Bobby as he tells the story of Sunday, a young boy raised in the displaced camps in Northern Uganda. Through the documentary you find out about the difficulty in the camps and the story behind the children who live there. Check out the trailer here:

Stay involved in the Invisible Children efforts and think about how you can get the word out about their films and be a part of the movement.
"Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do."
