the rescue
2009 April 26
a few people blogged about this event called ‘the rescue’. it was a protest by invisible children aimed at raising the profile of the invisible war in africa.
i’ve never been part of a protest before… and it was a really interesting experience. admittedly i was skeptical about how much good a load of teenagers and students sleeping in a park overnight would make, but then my friend reminded me that we really never know the consequences and effects of any of our actions… so i hope it’s done some good.
i’m proudly wearing my t-shirt and facepaint still… for now.
i think next time i’ll remember my sleeping bag…
glad to see some more posts about the rescue.
thanks for coming :-) next time i’ll share my sleeping bag…
You were more dedicated to the cause thats why you didn’t bring the sleeping bag
