“I felt a personal responsibility to step up, take action, create a voice. We are using these devices all day, every day, for our convenience and it’s basically perpetuating a war. I find it unacceptable that as consumers we allow this to go on."

SYNOPSIS: Throughout history Congo has been a tremendous source of wealth and prosperity due to its abundance of natural resources including rubber, ivory, oil, gas, and a virtual treasure trove of mineral resources such as diamonds, uranium, gold, copper, cobalt tin, etc. Unfortunately, that wealth has primarily gone to colonial powers, dictators, rebel fighters, and foreign companies while the people of Congo have been left with corruption, exploitation, and war. Unfortunately, this glaring difference between opportunity and reality is still the story of Congo today. |
