Some of my shots from IL/IN put together to show people some of the great moments of our movement! (mostly Chicago shots, I will make an Indianapolis one later). I am proud to have been part of such an amazing movement. I made new friends, became closer to old ones, and heard some of the best speeches of my life!
After waiting 7 days in the rain, wind, and cold, Chicago (the last city standing) was rescued by Oprah.
(there is a clip on youtube that shows us in front of her studio at the beginning of her show on Oprah Live in Chicago - to find it search Invisible Children on Oprah).
People from all over the world came to Chicago to help us stay strong in our final stand to bring attention to the terrible acts being committed in Northern Uganda. And for those who couldn't come out to Chicago, they helped by sending us food, water, and keeping us updated on the live feed on Mogulus!

for more info. on this issue, on this movement, visit...

a big thank you to everyone who helped me during these 7 days, to everyone involved (on-line and in person), to all of the churches that let us sleep in their gyms, to Cameron, Marcus, and everyone else in the office who kept us updated with the live feed, to Brutus (the Dog) for being so darn cute!, Bobby Bailey and to everyone and anyone else i haven't mentioned!

(John and Chelsea, you guys are great! I'm glad we met!)
