  • As a Congolese born, I continue to pray for these people, my people....that one day this will be over and also hope that I'll be one of those who bring change to this country. My home country.

  • This is amazing. I have spent years defending Ben Affleck to all my movie loving friends who follow the crowd and write him off as a bad actor. He is a great actor and a great human being. This does not prove the formaer, but it certainly confirms the latter. Thank you for posting this. I hope more people get to see it. This is a tragedy almost beyond measure. I will continue to praise Affleck for his fortitude in bringing this atrocity to light.

  • US & Europe military are Satanic; they install poor group of people & puppet leaders to steal resource & to committed Black African genocide. Fuck American & Europe banker & army.

  • If regan can be president,

    I suppose itd be nice to see Damon as president and Affleck as vice president

  • @nnamdieze87 Indeed they did.

  • This video is from 2008. I am writing this in 2011. Most of the internally displaced people are not yet back home...

  • Ben,

    I truly admire your efforts, you are one in million (unfortunately), I hope more people like you are able to make a difference. First step, abolish guns.

  • I love the line that Ben holds so effectively, without giving an quarter to the victim mentality, in the way he conveys the power and dignity and strength of the Congolese! Go, Ben! Thank you for all that you are doing. Let us all do our part! 

  • Thanx B. A, u real!!

    U know a lotta people r kept in the dark, 4 them Africa's this dark, mysterious place,i hope this can raise the light and push awereness for more action.

  • I'm aware.

  • Our entertainment media tried to tear down this man when he was banging J-Lo. He's proven himself to be a more than capable director of films, and more importantly, a decent human being. I don't care what the reason is for his humanitarianism, whether it be altruism or sheer vanity.  He could be sitting in the hollywood hills 'chillin' like a villian,' but instead he chooses to shed light on an area of the world that few know about or show concern for. Affleck is a good guy.
