i saw this in school today and when Jacob started crying i just wanted to hug him and take him and his brother away from that terrible place, i cried in class seeing this :(
i have a little bro, he is tremendously annoying, rude, talkative, selfish, and completely focused on how his image looks. But after 0:50 I vowed to myself, to God, to anyone who would listen, that I would protect, love, and make his short life as enjoyable as possible for long as I live.
watching this whole document is really hard :'( i would have never thought such horrible things could be inflicted to children. i really hope this situation will stop very soon, it's intorelable to see that!
If you want to help these kids, please contact me and i can give you a link we're you can donate that is connected to the invisible children's project. My school is trying our best to raise money and help. Please think of these kids and how much you can impact them and please message me for a link where you can donate. Thank you <3
My Heart Broke into a Million Pieces When Jacob Started Crying </3 :'( This Film Makes Me Disgusted With Myself . i Have a Laptop Provided By My School , A Warm Nice Bed to Sleep in Every Night , Electricity , Water , Heat , Gas , Support , Love , & i Complain About Having No Food in My House When in All Actuality There's Cans & Cans of Food in the Pantry . These Kids Would Praise the Lord if They Could Switch Lives With People Like Us . </3 Dear Lord , Please Help These Children <3
Africa for many years have been years of suffering, the reason their are peace corps or organizations is that people believe they can help, but there governments believe it would be the cause of more money and there are no special resources so they don't bother. so i wondered "why would God allow this/", then i said "God left Africa along time ago.".
@latinamajor - the Invisible Children organization came and spoke at my school a week ago and their efforts are now turned towards the Congo where the LRA have moved to.
@Maidanic True. However, I see nothing on the IC website or in thier flyers acknowledging that Uganda has not seen LRA violence for 4 years. also, I spoke with people who were seeking donations for IC and everyone one of them was completely unaware of the fact that there had been no LRA violence in Uganda for the past 4 years. They were quite insistent that the war was still ongoing in Uganda. I was instantly suspicious about the organization on account of those very disturbing facts.
The IC webside does mention that the war has moved from Uganda to the D.R. Congo. (In the history of the war part) The money that is still going to Uganda is for the construction of school building and education fund for the people effected by the war. Some money goes to D.R. Congo as well.
If anyone can tell me the name of the song that starts at 4:40 i will be grateful because we need it for the IC group that we have at school thank you.
This breaks my heart so much, I feel sick that I didn't know about the big picture happening. Jacob truly moved my heart, I'll do my best to spread the word. I hope he is still alive I'm sure his brother would want him to live on.
Sorry to say the charitable orgs. like inv. children are only PROLONGING the horrible conditions in which these children have to live in. We cant continue to support the system that's created these conditions.The CORRUPT leaders of Uganda have created the mass seperation of wealth thats plagued and enslaved many Ugandan generations. Konys military rebellion has failed bc it only creates more violence. Now a real REVOLUTIONARY must rise in Uganda against the corrupt leaders who create this mess.
everything that they have gone thru. everything that they have seen. but they still have such a strong faith in God. that is truly an amazing thing <3
And to think we complain about not having the newest phone, getting called into work, taking the bus, or how our cable bill is too expensive. These children are stronger, more resilient and more appreciative of the things they have (which isnt much) than most of the adults I know. I wish everyone in America could trade places with these children for one work day. Open your eyes and mind people, imagine yourself in their shoes. We wouldnt last a day.
this is the saddest thing i've ever seen in my whole 17 years of life. watching Jacob cry breaks my heart everytime i see it. ): i set up a fundraiser at my school for this foundation and we're raising money as we speak for these children. i cry everytime i watch this documentary. i've never had to experience something so horrible and i hope and pray that these children find peace soon.
Man, every time I watch this documentary, Jacob crying always goes straight to my heart. I can't help but start crying with him. Even the other day, I was eating lunch and my dad mentioned invisible children and once I thought about this part I started tearing up and my parents had no idea why!
i am only 15 right now, i'll be 16 in a couple months. i'm a figure skater, and going to be a sophmore in high school. i love skating, i love my friends, i love my family. but all i want to do with my life is help these kids. i would give up everything i have, all my money, the car my dad got me, my house, my computers, my phone, EVERYTHING. these kids need HELP. i do not. all i've wanted to do since i was a little girl is just help. i promise to do everthing i can to help the invisible children
It rips my heart open. Seriously its awful how Joseph Kony could have got away with such atrocious things for so long. And those poor little kids living in such terror EVERY SINGLE DAY- its heartbreaking.
Amazing documentary guys! Thank you so much for showing the world (well whoever will watch this at least) what is happening. Words can't describe my feelings for these kids...
Next year I'll be going to Africa to help provide support and medical aid as a paramedic, but mostly as a person. I find it disgusting how people 'better off' can be so blind to what is happening to an entire CONTINENT of impoverished people. It's disgusting...BUT I'm glad people like you guys, me and others like us can.

Thank you for documenting this. I'm planning to go to Africa in March 2011. I'm not sure where I'm going to go or what Im going to do....I just know I'm going. 3-6 months. My friend sent me this as he knows my plan. Its so devestating what is going on in the world around us...thank you for helping and for increasing my desire to help.
It's a sad day when you have children wishing for death. When Jacob starts to cry it's a very hard thing to watch because we have never had to endure the things he had to and will continue to live through until someone steps up and steps in to take control of the situation. All we can do is watch and listen to their stories and hope to God someone a little more important answer their prayers.
I wish I could find a way to help these children somehow.... I don't have anything to give them right now, but that is not a world anyone should have to live in.. Poor Jacob, I can't help but cry for him and all the other innocent people that are dying :'(... if everyone in America donated like 5 dollars or something, maybe it could make a difference... it would be worth a try at least... Pray for these children <3<3<3
this video made me cry so much. Jacobs cry hurt me so much. I feel so sorry for him and i will try my best to make sure him as well as the other Ugandan children have a way to survive this war. This documentary has changed mi life completely! it makes me very greatful for everything that i have. i will pray the invisiable children and i will never forget them and they will always be in mi heart.
i am afcircan and life in europe....my heart cries when i see that the world i life in can not be real! i was in afcrica 2 times and i hope i can change something with telling everybody about this.but people like to forget and deny that there is something worse than...not getting a laptop for christmas..!!!!!...
....Jacobs sad morbid dark hallow cry....it just tore right through my heart...that poor child....I know how he feels...I understand him...to want to die than stay alive...that's deep. Jacob, honey, please be strong. Don't give up. I believe in you! <=)
this made me cry so hard. me and my friend are helping out however we can. even if it means the money is oming out of our paychecks we don't care. they need it more than we do.....way more.
this is so amazing. thank you for uploading this, and thank you to the people that made this documentary. I hope more people will see it, and there will be change from it

Sometimes, just sometimes, a story is so moving that I can honestly say people need to see the HUMAN FACE behind the numbers and satistics of AFRICA before they decide what to do.
Each child's story in this documentary reminds me of the reason I considered it an honour to write a food security policy for the Australian Government.
We need to find a way to get these people effective and efficient aid that changes lives. That will also mean stopping a soul destorying war to give chioldren a chance to use the resilience in highlyu productive ways, not just so they live until tomorrow morning.
Many of the people have their HOPE in Jesus and mine is too. It takes an awesome God to give life in the middle of such carnage and death.
The best thing you can do is to make these children visible.
I can't think of anything any sadder than this, and i want to hug jacob and take him into my home and care for him and see that he gets a chance at a good life in a better place. He deserves this!
This has to stop!! These poor children are suffering every single day. Why shouldn't the US government help them? They are also poor ,defenseless, little ,scared kids who deserve to live as regular kids not fight the wars of men!!!
You can't compare the two...that's Africa...why can't we compare the two? WHY CAN'T WE COMPARE THE TWO. Why does one nation advance and another remain stagnant? What would you do if everything you ever knew about your world changed? What would you do if your government actively and openly hunted you?
At my school today we watched the sequel of this. When that boy cried my friend and I almost lost it. When he explained how he felt about losing his brother I thought about what it would be like to lose one of my older brothers. I can't even begin to imagine what these children have to go through every day. My school just signed up for the school for school program and now I feel like I'm able to help them. We should all sign up to help these children. They shouldn't have to live in fear.
My heart just split in two. The rest of the documentary wrenched me, don't get me wrong. But hearing a child say they would rather die then stay on Earth was my breaking point. I have just finished a letter to my local congressman to vote on the LRA Bill, and signed the Citizen's Arrest of Joseph Kony petition. I will also buy the DVD when I have the money. This needs to STOP.
ahh, these scenes are really depressing, but they do set me to thinking. =X let's combine our hearts and pray for God to move in Africa. it is really heartwarming to see how the children persevere and live on. may God multiply and bless them greatly!
why is everyone being so negative? Stop attacking each other, it doesn't help anything. This film is extremely eye-opening and has the potential to bring aid and change for the children of Uganda. But it is very fights like this that dissuade people from doing anything to help. Don't fight each other..because it takes the focus off of what this documentary is trying to accomplish. These kids don't have the time to sit around and wait for us to get along.
this makes me disgusted with my self. i mean i have a bed to sleep in ample amounts of food and water.. for crying out loud a have a fucking swimming pool, and these kids are sleeping on the ground, starving to death, have no blankets, and one thing of clothes IF THAT!..I really wanna do something for these kids..I think for my birthday i am going to ask for money and then give it to InvisibleChildren. I mean being a 17 year old kid that's the most i can do right now. :(
@SkSk920 join Invisible Children United. try to get groups of people to watch this. help get high schools in your area to start up Invisible Children clubs. im helping set up a benefit concert in my area to help raise awareness. you dont have to have money to make a difference... but it helps if you have rich friends :)
@SkSk920 You will go far with the awareness and the big heart you have been given. Never forget this suffering. Use your gift to help others who do not see like you see.

Interesting that he said this would never happen in the US when they showed all the children sleeping rough...... I take it that the documentary was filmed before Katrina!
Katrina was a hard hit that devestated many families and lives. But how dare you compare torture, rape, starvation, murder, making children killing machines, with NO one to help them. America turns a blind eye to this, but in instances like Katrina - you have all the aid you can get rushing in and doing the best they can immediately. This is 17 years worth of damage. How heartless could you be?
@CarolinaFancy09 It is pure ignorance...and for katrina..there was not aid rushing in to do the best they can do...the ignorance and selfish greed of American politics in particular are so grand that even the people of their own country were not seen to as should have been...thousands of people are still displaced in New Orleans living under the bridges and other unacceptable places around the city....
@CarolinaFancy09 Both events were/ are awful blows, let's not compare them and put them in a "Who's suffering more" contest cause thats one shitty competition to win.
Makes da hood in america look like paradise (immortal tecnique-3rd world). And america is wasting mad money in iraq? Thats fucked up. I'd like 2 see Obama do something about this. If he doesn't then fuck him
this was so inspirational. i cried my eyes out while watching. what really moved me was when he said why we shouldn't compare their world to ours. if that didn't make you want to get up and do something i don't know what will.
anybody who gives this vid crap can go burn in hell. imagine if this were you... this is terrible to watch them suffer. i fell so bad for jacob and others in his situation. god bless you jacob.
we watched the whole movie in world geography today and i cried my eyes out at the part when he cried for his brother. i cried my eyes out. i felt his pain it was horrible. im crying now watching it again. and i can hear the cameraman crying. it breaks my heart to see this. NO ONE DESERVES TO LIVE LIKE THIS! I WILL STAND UP FOR THEM THEY NEED HELP!
I am trying so hard to stop the fighting, and it's this boys heart ache that drives me to do so. I am rasing money. I am rasing awareness. Yet nobody knows about this terrible terrible sorrow.
im doing the same, and i believe if we can get more people to do help what we are fighting for, the world as a whole would be a totally different place.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i just watched this today and i lol'd through the entire movie when i wasnt sleeping yea it sucks but we gotta fix our own problems in the united states such as homeless murder rates rapes etc before we can worry about them seriously
how dare you say something so selfish! compared to those in uganda, america is thriving. yeah there will be homeless people, murders, rapes and so on, but if you put yourself in their shoes, you will see that most people dont have homes, young ones have to murder their siblings, and children and being raped everyday! don't say we need to fix our problems because we really do not have it that bad.
. Because I know if we can stop one war, we can stop the war in Aferica.
No child should be treated like this. Love your neibhor, be fruitful and never think that the color is the answer to start a war. Love them because I have a friend that is black skined but she is so loving.
Lets try to help these people. Lets give them why we care, after all life is so presiouse once we realized that it is gone from us.
i feel that jacob's cry represents the cry of all of the children who have experienced losses and of all of the children who have been abducted. It's great that they can still be so happy even though crap like this is happening
we people have to do something, we all sit our butts in front of tv and xbox and play gta 4 while 80% of the rest of the world are suffering in hell, i wont say itz our fault , but we have to start supporting them./
i hope that everyone goes to the invisible childrens web site! there is this huge rally they are doing coming up! talk to ppl at your school and do what you can to bring peace!!
ball were not looking for war we and the goverment here and there are trying to find peace i know its weird but thats what jacob wants war to test bc if we go to war were fighting kids and that will prove were just as much of a monster as them by killing kids
I think that Obama should get all the black gangs in america to go fight and kill all the Rebels! Thats the only solution. I also think that Obama should so something about this situation considering he is an african american. Maybe hmmm just give them 2 million dollars thats like a penny from every american.
God bless their hearts, and have mercy. What has the world come to? Those of us in more fortunate countries have no idea how truly fortunate we are. But the beauty and the heart of these African children will grow far richer than ours probably ever will. We are all human beings regardless of where we are born, we all deserve the same rights to live peacefully and without fear. I pray I do what I can with my life to help, and I'm so thankful for those who put out this movie. God bless Africa.
crazydisciple, go actually watch the news. it has been on there and no one in america listens. that is why everyone hates the usa, because people like you represent it. sure, ignore that other places in the world have to go through this. your place is here with the rest of the hypocrits in the american government. its a shame there are people like you alive and well while people like the invisible children have to hurt so much.
you are such an asshole. you have no idea what you are talking about. go there and see how you feel. i hate ignorant people and you are the epitome of that.
Lets do something about this! If your not involved at your school get involved, if your school doesn't have an invisible children group, start one!! You can do it, you can be the one who steps up and makes a difference!
The movie needs to be viewed by everyone! If you have a heart at all you will do something for these poor children. What you may ask. I bought a braclet which may not seem like much but it is all I can do for now. Do what you can raise money buy a shirt or DVD. One question is how can you not!
i saw this in school today and when Jacob started crying i just wanted to hug him and take him and his brother away from that terrible place, i cried in class seeing this :(

It's sad when Jacob cries. Actually, sad doesn't even begin to describe it.
hedgehogamy300 2 years ago 3
Part A:
Sometimes, just sometimes, a story is so moving that I can honestly say people need to see the HUMAN FACE behind the numbers and satistics of AFRICA before they decide what to do.
Each child's story in this documentary reminds me of the reason I considered it an honour to write a food security policy for the Australian Government.

Part B:
We need to find a way to get these people effective and efficient aid that changes lives. That will also mean stopping a soul destorying war to give chioldren a chance to use the resilience in highlyu productive ways, not just so they live until tomorrow morning.
Many of the people have their HOPE in Jesus and mine is too. It takes an awesome God to give life in the middle of such carnage and death.
The best thing you can do is to make these children visible.

This has to stop!! These poor children are suffering every single day. Why shouldn't the US government help them? They are also poor ,defenseless, little ,scared kids who deserve to live as regular kids not fight the wars of men!!!

You can't compare the two...that's Africa...why can't we compare the two? WHY CAN'T WE COMPARE THE TWO. Why does one nation advance and another remain stagnant? What would you do if everything you ever knew about your world changed? What would you do if your government actively and openly hunted you?

At my school today we watched the sequel of this. When that boy cried my friend and I almost lost it. When he explained how he felt about losing his brother I thought about what it would be like to lose one of my older brothers. I can't even begin to imagine what these children have to go through every day. My school just signed up for the school for school program and now I feel like I'm able to help them. We should all sign up to help these children. They shouldn't have to live in fear.

My heart just split in two. The rest of the documentary wrenched me, don't get me wrong. But hearing a child say they would rather die then stay on Earth was my breaking point. I have just finished a letter to my local congressman to vote on the LRA Bill, and signed the Citizen's Arrest of Joseph Kony petition. I will also buy the DVD when I have the money. This needs to STOP.

why is everyone being so negative? Stop attacking each other, it doesn't help anything. This film is extremely eye-opening and has the potential to bring aid and change for the children of Uganda. But it is very fights like this that dissuade people from doing anything to help. Don't fight each other..because it takes the focus off of what this documentary is trying to accomplish. These kids don't have the time to sit around and wait for us to get along.

this makes me disgusted with my self. i mean i have a bed to sleep in ample amounts of food and water.. for crying out loud a have a fucking swimming pool, and these kids are sleeping on the ground, starving to death, have no blankets, and one thing of clothes IF THAT!..I really wanna do something for these kids..I think for my birthday i am going to ask for money and then give it to InvisibleChildren. I mean being a 17 year old kid that's the most i can do right now. :(

Interesting that he said this would never happen in the US when they showed all the children sleeping rough...... I take it that the documentary was filmed before Katrina!
queeninwaiting 2 years ago
Katrina was a hard hit that devestated many families and lives. But how dare you compare torture, rape, starvation, murder, making children killing machines, with NO one to help them. America turns a blind eye to this, but in instances like Katrina - you have all the aid you can get rushing in and doing the best they can immediately. This is 17 years worth of damage. How heartless could you be?

@CarolinaFancy09 It is pure ignorance...and for katrina..there was not aid rushing in to do the best they can do...the ignorance and selfish greed of American politics in particular are so grand that even the people of their own country were not seen to as should have been...thousands of people are still displaced in New Orleans living under the bridges and other unacceptable places around the city....

how dare you say something so selfish! compared to those in uganda, america is thriving. yeah there will be homeless people, murders, rapes and so on, but if you put yourself in their shoes, you will see that most people dont have homes, young ones have to murder their siblings, and children and being raped everyday! don't say we need to fix our problems because we really do not have it that bad.

I think that Obama should get all the black gangs in america to go fight and kill all the Rebels! Thats the only solution.

God bless their hearts, and have mercy. What has the world come to? Those of us in more fortunate countries have no idea how truly fortunate we are. But the beauty and the heart of these African children will grow far richer than ours probably ever will. We are all human beings regardless of where we are born, we all deserve the same rights to live peacefully and without fear. I pray I do what I can with my life to help, and I'm so thankful for those who put out this movie. God bless Africa.
