What a pity that in the rich world, women pay $10,000+ just for a Gucci handbag - whilst these fine people have to beg for a well so they can give clean water to their families.

What we have, we must share, if this is to stop.

The one who was sent to hospital discharged himself and went back to the place he stopped and finished the marathon the next day! Such pride!! They have raised over £60,000 and still counting. Incredible people.

i've read an australian aborigine say that they are not moving from their residence on the principle. Which means they could try and leave for the childrens sake, but dont

Anybody know how the boys are doing. I love the Massai,, I got a chance to meet two wonderful boys guarding the house I was staying at in Tanz. They taught me more than I ever will teach them, I miss them dearly. Shout out to Emm and Mateo in Buswelu ! You rock!

Many african tribes (and a lot of other around the world) used to live damn fine (with food, water, and all what they needed...) and then the goverments, coloners and other invaders started pushing them from the "good parts" of the lands...Australian aborigins were pushed to live in the hardest part of the land...with almost no water, food...but they still alive...it's not about sharing, its about kicking the others ass...

Venezuelan indigenous were almost exterminated...killed or used as slaves

Yeah, wonderful. If EVERY SINGLE RICH CELEBRITY did their part, that would be great, but they don't. A few here and there, the richest of the rich is fine and dandy but what about everyone else? I don't need to "find out first" before I comment. I already know. You need to realize that "what you said applies to only a few and more needs to be done" before you knock a comment.
