Last night I watched "The Lost Boys of Sudan". It's a documentary about a group of Sudaneese refugees that come to America. All of the boys that come over have lost their parents and or families in war, and now are trying to make a new life for themselves in America.
It's one of those movies that humbles your problems and makes you feel really tiny in respect to the rest of the world.
Like how can I be upset because the woman standing in front of me on the subway decided to board the train before everyone exited the train...when Darfur is the way it is and innocent people die everyday.
If you haven't checked it out, you really should.
It's a good film.

i thought that was a follow up to the vampire movie
I have started to work with Lost Boys, that's how I found your blog. I saw the movie and I set up a blog which is more history and bibliography called Sudanese Interests

I led a panel discussion with some Lost Boys for my Toastmasters Club and I am looking at trying to form a Speakers Bureau for them.
