Invisible Children Inc. is a non-profit group dedicated to the plight of the thousands Ugandan children abducted in the region's civil war. The organization was founded by the makers of the 2003 documentary Invisible Children: Rough Cut, about the ongoing armed conflict and the involvement of the Ugandan rebel group Lord's Resistance Army.Causecast: Invisible Children
On April 25, 2009, Invisible Children held protests in 100 cities across the globe. In the protests, participants posed symbolically as abducted children in need of being rescued by response of the governments and the media. A major single protest is scheduled for the weekend of June 25-27 in Washington D.C.MTV News: Invisible Children Rescue' Demonstration Draws Celebrities (April 27, 2009)
Lord's Resistance Army
The Lord's Resistence Army is a militant rebel group in northern Uganda, dedicated to the establishment of a theocratic state in the region. The group is led by charismatic strongman Joseph Kony, who claims to act on direct orders of God. The Army's ranks are reportedly filled with children who have been forcibly abducted from their families to be used as soldiers or sex slaves.BBC News: Profile: Joseph Kony"Rescue" Vigils
Invisible Children's protests have involved the use of political theater. Participants act as "abducted children," leaving symbols of their homes in one location and marching to another, where they await "rescue" by local the media and politicians. Through these agitprop actions, the group aims to increase awareness of Uganda's abducted children.WalesOnline: Vigil highlights boy soldiers (April 27, 2009)-
