The video brought new attention to Uganda; warlord and International Criminal Court indictee Joseph Kony; and the YouTube short creator, American NGO Invisible Children.

A lot of people who follow me on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram don’t know a lot about my past. They don’t know that I’ve lived in Africa. They don’t know that I’ve experienced poverty first hand. They don’t know the looks on the kids faces when they see you, excited and curious at the same time.
