Sudan's 'Lost Boys' Return Home

Three young men who fled the fighting in South Sudan as boys to grow up and be educated in three different US cities return home. In an emotional journey, they reunite with with loved ones, grieve over those who have died, and to offer the skills they acquired in America to help a struggling people.

Jen Marlowe's reporting in South Sudan, published in The Nation magazine, was supported by the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting and The Nation Institute Investigative Fund. A film excerpt airs October 26 on PBS's Foreign Exchange with Fareed Zakaria.

One of the lost boys came to my school to inform us and ask for our help. We donated enough to build schools and all that good stuff =) just my class alone donated $200.00 and I can only imagine how much the other 100-200 some odd classes donated. But that being the case, we need to continue helping, you may think to yourself, oh what would just one person do, I can't make a difference. No you can't, and it's because you're thinking of it like that EVERYONE should help, even if it's just 1person

I watched the preview of the whole documentary at Lemoyne college last year. One thing I like admired from this documentary is that it tries to tell the problem of Sudan from the cultural and envionmental point of view. It is great!
