I Need Africa More Than Africa Needs Me.

African Leadership is a ministry that changed the lives of some friends of mine when they visited Kenya and Uganda with them a couple years ago. They're doing a T-Shirt campaign to raise money for aid, but the video they've put together to promote it is the first one I've ever seen that gives a realistic, dignified treatment to people's situations.



The idea is this: Joy can and does exist in Africa, a place we normally think of as containing nothing but despair. Happiness doesn't have to depend on circumstance, as much as we in America feel like it must.



Check out the video...
