Emmanuel Jal has a terrifying past and a gentle soul. A former child soldier in Sudan, he is today a well known rap artist. This is the story of his war years, where he was uniquely profiled on film as a young and charismatic boy, undaunted by the pain all around him. And then his escape from the Sudan to the West where he found fame but never lost his pure heart.

It is sad that children are being used to fight wars for adults. It sad we still have wars taking place all around the world.

[machippy]

its the governments that need to change and that wont happen

[SimbaR0cks]

Sometimes in this life, you have to fight. But kids should not be the ones to do it.

[michaelpousti]

this is sad.

@Nicksvoiceinthewild

Yes, you are right!

If we care about Sudanese people we like about all people, but who care??? The UN? USA? NATO? And all hypocrite countries who look for buy the arms that they build?

[machippy]

@Nicksvoiceinthewild because most governments do not listen to the people. I think the current riots prove my point

[Nicksvoiceinthewild]

@Laarriiee33

Rhetorical questions aside,

What do people dying somewhere else have to do with it?

What about those [Pak, Iraq, Pal, Afg] people - how does caring about someone else deprive them? I think if we care about Sudanese people, we are more likely to care about them as well.

I invoke forbidding rights on you speaking that way- more people have died in Congo these last 20 years than all those countries combined.

More people have died in Sudan than in Iraq and Afganistan.

@machippy

why not?

Because people keep saying it won't happen?

[Laarriiee33]

How many kids are killed now in Afghanistan? In Iraq? In Palestine? In Gaza? In Pakistan? In all Mslims and Arab countries, please.

you are naive....people who lived in Rome thousands of years ago had poverty and worse. Not every roman lived in a huge villa and ate among the finest of men and had the finest of women. Rome was actually in alot of BS situations...like when Nero went on a rampage. He killed thousands....and today...the average roman villa compares to your average 2 story apartment. In Africa lots live like kings and most live like dogs...i know that's what you meant but i honestly think your comment is unclear.

@WhArKieDx ah dont be such a pessimist! in my opinion we've greatly increased in our abilities and methods of mass slaughtering each other for no apparent reason!.........maybe africa is still using those old, slow, and less potent methods, but here in usa we've made genocide a much more accommodating and cost effective industry!

[tHeWasTeDYouTh]

lmao it is common sense, one can read how the Romans lived 2010 years ago and the most amazing thing is in this year africans are living like animals

how in the hell could people 2010 years ago live better than some people today
